Maryland Redistricting Lawsuit | Annapolis News

Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

A conservative watchdog group is suing to block a Maryland redistricting amendment from appearing on the November ballot, claiming Democratic lawmakers violated state election law by skipping key deadlines and bypassing required public notice. The lawsuit argues that the amendment wasn’t certified by July 1st and skipped the mandatory 15-day comment period—rules unanimously passed earlier this year. The Oversight Project isn’t opposed to redrawing districts, but insists on fair, transparent processes to protect voters. With ballots set to print by September 3rd, a fast court decision looms—and this case could set a precedent for redistricting battles nationwide, including in Georgia.
