Congressional Delegation/? 07

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS

Maryland retained eight seats in the U.S. House of Representatives with the 1990 federal census. One
representative is elected from each of Maryland's eight congressional districts.

In the description of congressional district boundaries, all references to election districts, wards, and
precincts are to the geographical boundaries as they existed on June 1, 1981. Precinct boundaries are
dynamic. Changes occur to reflect population shifts and to ensure convenient polling places for all voters.
Local boards of supervisors of elections can provide current information on precincts encompassed within
each congressional district. Maryland's congressional districts were enacted by the General Assembly in
1982 (Chapter 106, Acts of 1982).
