Gov. Wes Moore starts Maryland redistricting efforts amid national voter map battle

Gov. Wes Moore Initiates Maryland Redistricting Efforts

As the midterm elections approach, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore has announced the revival of a redistricting advisory commission to recommend new congressional maps.

The Governor’s Redistricting Advisory Commission, which typically meets every decade to redraw legislative and congressional maps based on Census results, has been re-established to ensure fair representation.

“My commitment has been clear from day one — we will explore every avenue possible to make sure Maryland has fair and representative maps,”

Moore stated in a news release. Angela Alsobrooks, the former Prince George’s County executive, will chair the commission.

This move comes amid a national battle over voter maps, with U.S. President Donald Trump trying to prevent Democrats from gaining seats in Congress.
