Maryland Dem Flips Script on Redistricting Rules

Maryland Dem Flips Script on Redistricting Rules

Bill Ferguson just discovered that “the rules have changed” the second his party smelled an edge.

Maryland’s Senate president spent months warning against mid-decade map changes, citing lawsuits and backlash in a state Democrats already rigged to their liking. Now Ferguson signals openness because national battles are heating up before the midterms. Translation: Democrats loved frozen maps when the lines protected their seats. The moment Republicans might gain ground, the Constitution apparently got an upgrade. Ferguson’s pivot exposes the real rule...Democrats rewrite election mechanics only when their grip loosens. No principle, just power. They spent years branding Republican map efforts as attacks on democracy while protecting their own gerrymanders in states like Maryland and New York. Ferguson’s sudden flexibility proves the outrage was never about process or fairness. It was about who controls the pencil. Mid-decade redraws remain legally dicey and politically toxic, yet Ferguson is ready to roll the dice if it keeps House seats blue. That is not statesmanship. That is naked opportunism dressed up as pragmatism.

Shut your suck hole, Bill Ferguson.

Satire. But you knew that.
