His X account says otherwise.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>But in the last few months, residents have added new accessories to their front porches: lawn signs supporting the state Senate campaigns of Bill Ferguson, Maryland\u2019s current Senate president, or opponent Bobby LaPin, the first Democratic primary challenger Ferguson has faced in 12 years.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cFor prior elections I never even had my own campaign signs, I never had just \u2018Ferguson\u2019 campaign signs,\u201d Ferguson told NBC News in an interview at his campaign headquarters in Locust Point, adding that he normally makes and distributes signs that don his name alongside those of the state delegates representing his district.<\/p>\n<p>But this year, Ferguson faces a primary challenge from LaPin, a community activist, small business owner and Army veteran who amassed a following on Instagram promoting his sailing business and his activism well before he launched his bid for the seat last year. Now, LaPin is mounting an insurgent campaign in the wake of Ferguson\u2019s decision last year not to pursue partisan redistricting in Maryland, in a rebuke to national Democratic leaders and Gov. Wes Moore.<\/p>\n<p>The race, which will be decided in a June 23 primary, could be reflective of the anti-establishment sentiment sweeping through Republican and Democratic primaries across the country \u2014 this time materializing in Charm City.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Anti-establishment angst<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>LaPin, who has been knocking on doors in his army green Baltimore Orioles baseball cap, believes voters in the area are fed up with \u201cthe establishment\u201d and are seeking a fighter who will stand up for progressive values and lead Maryland\u2019s opposition to President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe country is on fire. It is absolutely on fire. It is not okay what\u2019s happening outside, and to have politicians that aren\u2019t fighting tooth and nail, ten toes dug into the ground, face to face, and pushing back, that\u2019s a betrayal to people,\u201d he told NBC News in an interview at a coffee shop in the district\u2019s Federal Hill neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p>One of LaPin\u2019s campaign volunteers, Hadley Anthony, 35, said his candidate\u2019s constant presence at community events, like anti-war protests and vigils for those killed by federal agents earlier this year in Minnesota, is what drew her to the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBobby\u2019s at all these things. Bobby is always there, even at the small protests,\u201d she told NBC News at LaPin\u2019s \u201cLemonade for Good Change\u201d event in Patterson Park last week. \u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m out here, in like 95-degree weather, squeezing lemons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ferguson, meanwhile, is also framing the race as one between a member of the establishment and an ambitious upstart, but the 15-year state senator believes that voters will choose him after they hear about his role in delivering policy results from Annapolis that have improved Baltimore schools and driven down local crime rates. <\/p>\n<p>The incumbent called LaPin\u2019s primary challenge a \u201cblessing in disguise\u201d that has given him an opportunity \u201cto think through about how best to communicate with voters about the things that I\u2019ve been able to deliver over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ferguson specifically pointed to education and healthcare reforms and a 2021 law he sponsored that put in place Maryland\u2019s first-in-the-nation digital advertising tax, which allows the state to collect hundreds of millions of dollars that are earmarked for an education reform program.  <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Ferguson also addressed the backlash LaPin has capitalized on against his approach to legislating.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI understand how angry people are, and I understand why, you know, this idea of fighting fire with fire is so resonant with people,\u201d he said. \u201cThe reality is, you don\u2019t fight fire with fire, you fight fire with water. You have to be smart, and you have to be tactical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of Ferguson\u2019s supporters, Rep. Sarah Elfreth, D-Md., also didn\u2019t dispute LaPin\u2019s characterization of Ferguson as an established, longtime politician, touting that fact as a strength for the incumbent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI understand people\u2019s frustration with what they may see as a status quo,\u201d Elfreth told NBC News in an interview. \u201cAt the same time, I don\u2019t know why experience is discounted in this particular \u2014 I hate to call it profession \u2014 but experience is really important.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u201cYou shouldn\u2019t have to ask where the bathrooms are when you get to the statehouse, not understand how a bill becomes a law, or how to compromise and negotiate amongst your own constituents, let alone your colleagues from 46 other Senate districts and the House and the governor. This is a skill set, this is experience that really does matter for any state senator,\u201d added Elfreth, who served alongside Ferguson in the state senate for six years.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Redistricting decision backlash<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>LaPin jumped into the primary race against Ferguson in November, capitalizing on national and Maryland Democrats\u2019 anger at the state Senate president\u2019s decision to block an effort to redraw Maryland\u2019s congressional maps, amid a push to create a total Democratic majority in the state\u2019s congressional delegation.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedmovinggroups.com\/?p=1457\">Maine resolves ranked choice primaries, setting up the governor\u2019s race and a key House contest<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Ferguson stuck with his decision for months despite the continued urging of Moore and national figures like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., who wanted Maryland to jump into the national partisan redistricting arms race between Democrats and Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>Ferguson said the pro-redistricting push did not have enough votes in his chamber to pass, citing worries that a map that would push the state\u2019s congressional delegation from 7-1 to 8-0 for Democrats could face legal challenges.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, state Judge Lynne Battaglia struck down Maryland Democrats\u2019 attempt to impose a map that gave their party an advantage in eight congressional districts, a ruling Ferguson said colors his decision-making today but may not affect Moore\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was in leadership in 2021, you know, the governor was in New York at that time,\u201d Ferguson said.<\/p>\n<p> He added, \u201cYou can\u2019t project the future with absolute certainty, and so I can understand the sentiment that even if we would lose in the courts, we should appear to be fighting.\u201d But Ferguson reiterated his fear that a state court could strike down maps passed by the state Legislature and impose its own map, potentially with more GOP-leaning districts than the one they have now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe easiest thing in the world to have done would have been to say, \u2018I\u2019m going to throw my hands up, we\u2019ll let the courts handle it. If they strike it down and send us backwards, it\u2019s the court\u2019s fault.\u2019 That\u2019s just not who I am. I can\u2019t just shirk responsibility,\u201d Ferguson said.<\/p>\n<p>LaPin has lambasted Ferguson for his position on redistricting, saying it, \u201chighlighted a trend from my opponent that he will only stand with the people when it\u2019s politically safe for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>But some voters have looked past his decision on redistricting and pointed to Ferguson\u2019s record of working for residents in the 46th District.<\/p>\n<p>Sandy Dodson, 60, and her husband hung a lawn sign supporting Ferguson in front of their Federal Hill home because they understood he was in a \u201ctight race,\u201d and Dodson said the senate president has always been \u201csupportive\u201d and \u201cresponsive\u201d to the needs of the district. On redistricting, Dodson said she maintained her support for Ferguson because of his past work and that she \u201cunderstood,\u201d why he didn\u2019t pursue redistricting after he publicly explained that it would be a \u201cgamble\u201d in the courts.<\/p>\n<p>Ferguson\u2019s position shifted slightly in May, in the wake of the Supreme Court\u2019s Louisiana v. Callais decision, which ruled that considering race in the drawing of congressional districts was unconstitutional. After the decision, several southern states almost immediately passed new maps eliminating Black-majority, Democratic-leaning districts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo see those other states act so swiftly was beyond troubling, and I think was even more frustrating, and devastating than what I imagined could be possible,\u201d Ferguson said. Moving forward, he supports bringing legislators to Annapolis for a special session this summer to prepare a constitutional amendment for Maryland to vote on this year. The amendment would allow for redistricting ahead of the 2028 election if it passed.<\/p>\n<p>LaPin said that he\u2019s supported Maryland\u2019s push to redistrict to a map that favors Democrats in eight seats since he jumped into the race.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI took a stand because it was right. He took a stand because it was safe and he chose poorly,\u201d LaPin said, adding that Ferguson\u2019s new openness to a special legislative session later this summer is \u201csimply because he realizes he\u2019s losing a race.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moore in May welcomed Ferguson\u2019s decision to pursue a special session, but added that Maryland Democrats should \u201cbe able to move aggressively on it.\u201d The governor snubbed Ferguson\u2019s reelection campaign in early May, leaving the legislative leader off of a list of campaign endorsements.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about how his relationship with the governor, who is running for a second term this year, has changed in the wake of their disagreement on redistricting, Ferguson alluded to the 2028 presidential election. Moore is widely expected to run for the Democratic nomination, though he told NBC News last year, \u201cI\u2019m not running for president.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he and I share similar values,\u201d Ferguson said. \u201cWe\u2019ve disagreed about approaches at times here, you know. I think he has his eyes on a higher prize, and so that\u2019s a \u2014 you know, a feature in a lot of the conversations. I\u2019m focused on delivering for the 46th District and the state of Maryland.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/trustedmovinggroups.com\/?p=1455\">U.S. strike on an alleged drug boat kills 3 in the eastern Pacific Ocean<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maryland state Senate president Bill Ferguson is facing a primary challenge in the wake of his decision last year not to pursue a new Democratic gerrymander in the state, in a rebuke to national Democrats and the governor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1460,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1461","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2026-election"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
