Maryland Democratic Gov. Wes Moore has signaled interest in redoing his state's maps, but has not called for a special session of the state legislature so far.
Democratic members of Maryland's congressional delegation are expected to meet in the coming weeks to push for a new congressional map that they argue would offset potential Republican gains in Texas.
Texas's GOP-controlled legislature last month passed its redistricting map last month that members expect will give them five more Republican seats in the next Congress. Democrat-led California and Republican-led Missouri have since launched efforts to redo their maps, while GOP-led Indiana is floating its own change.
Maryland Democratic Gov. Wes Moore has signaled interest in redoing his state's maps but has not called for a special session of the state legislature so far. Maryland has eight lawmakers in Congress, with just one Republican, Rep. Andy Harris, on the Eastern Shore.
“The Missouri legislature is meeting with the explicit and sole purpose of trying to draw Congressman Cleaver out of his district,” Maryland Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin told Punchbowl News. “Our delegation hasn’t met yet, but we are going to meet to discuss what we should do about this.”
Democratic Maryland Rep. Steny Hoyer also said that he would support a redistricting effort in his state if the state legislature decides to redraw the maps.
Maryland previously tried to redraw its maps in 2022 in order to turn Harris' district more blue, but Maryland state courts struck the map down, ruling it was unconstitutional partisan gerrymander.

Moore and the Maryland Democrats are assclowns.
Can they really gerrymander any more?
Wes Moore should look into stealing a Silver Star.
It’s the next rung up the Stolen Valor ladder.
The westernmost counties of Maryland are very Republican/conservative. They have long been gerrymandered out of any real representation in Congress.
They can get one more House seat.
Maybe “Left” Moore should appoint a third US senator...
They’re going to give Kid Abrego and his abused wife their own District Court with their own District Judgee from Jamaica.
The general direction is to move districts from “safe” for 1 party to “fairly safe” for that party.
What if city dwellers, or suburbanites, or rural voters, or Latinos or Blacks or Catholics trend different in the future than in the past and the districts don’t perform as predicted?
This cuts both ways. What if Latinos in CA trend more R?
Wes Moore is a danger to any people who believe in fair voting. He is corrupt, commie, and does not have our best interests in mind. He reminds me of a prolapsed pig rectum—utterly repulsive.
There’s only one GOP seat they can redistrict. They tried for an 8-0 map before, and a Democrat judge threw it out.

You’d have to cross the Bay Bridge.
Wes Moore is a danger. That was all you needed to say.
