马里兰州民主党人拒绝重新绘制国会选区图，斯瓦尔韦尔在传闻中辞职
Read, Watch or Listen
Annapolis, Maryland. Maryland Democrats declined a mid-deapolitical attempt to redraw the state's congressional map late Monday as the legislative session ended, leaving the proposal in committee; Gov. Wes Moore had supported the effort intended to make a Republican-held U.S. House seat more vulnerable. Washington saw related turmoil as Rep. Eric Swalwell ended his gubernatorial bid and announced his intent to resign from Congress amid public allegations. The immediate consequences unfolded this week with party officials citing concerns about judicial vulnerability and internal disagreement in Annapolis, while in Washington colleagues publicly distanced themselves from Swalwell and reporters pressed associates for explanations. Sen. Ruben Gallego held a press appearance Tuesday to address his past defense and said he confronted Swalwell when rumors emerged, signaling swift political fallout and continued scrutiny.
