    <div class="html-content">UMBC public policy professor and chair Donald Norris offers insight on Maryland political developments for both the Baltimore Sun and Patch this week. The Sun reports that possible contenders for Howard County executive are already raising campaign funds.

In Patch, Norris reflects on the opposition to Gov. Martin O’Malley’s state redistricting plan, arguing that the issue will likely end up in court.

Schaller argues that although Romney’s commercial is a positive step, the GOP still has a long way to go in appealing to Latino and other minority voters. What is the biggest issue? “Although other issues have contributed to the GOP’s struggles with Latino voters, the party’s strident opposition to immigration reform has poisoned the electoral well,” Schaller says.</div>
