Andy Harris looks to Larry Hogan to survive Maryland redistricting battle
Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) and Maryland Democrats are inching closer to ousting the state’s lone House Republican after notching a win at the state Supreme Court to keep a redistricting question on the ballot for the November elections.
TL;DR
