Marylanders lobby Ferguson to shift his stance on congressional redistricting

Todd Morman moved to Baltimore two years ago from North Carolina — a state he said Republicans “redistricted the hell” out of while he was there.

He thinks Maryland Democrats may now have a chance to counter what North Carolina Republicans did two years ago, but he is worried that Senate President Ferguson (D-Baltimore City) will stand in the way.

“I’ve seen this with politicians before — they get entrenched,” Morman said. “They fail to see the seriousness of the threat against the people at the bottom.”

Morman was one of dozens of people gathered on the first floor of the Maryland State House on Friday to call for Democrats to redraw the state’s congressional districts to counter partisan redistricting in GOP-led states — and specifically to rally against Ferguson’s opposition to redistricting.
