Rousuck Review: An over-the-top political farce on stage in 'POTUS'

The make-up of the Maryland congressional delegation will be significantly different when the new Congress is sworn in in January.

Angela Alsobrooks and Sarah Elfreth will be the first two women to join the delegation since Barbara Mikulski and Donna Owens left Congress in 2016. Senator-elect Alsobrooks becomes only the third African American woman to be elected to the US Senate.

The election saw voters decisively pass a plan for Harbor Place, while turning down an amendment to shrink the size of the City Council.

Statewide, voters statewide overwhelmingly voted to enshrine in the Maryland Constitution the right to access to reproductive health care.

Today on Midday, how are you feeling? What do you think? We discuss the latest with analysis from WYPR's Ashley Sterner, the co-host of On the Record, and WYPR News Director Matt Bush.

The day after Election Day, how did Maryland vote and what races are still up in the air?

It is Election Day in Maryland. What can you expect?

On November 1, legislation went into effect that expands the list of nonviolent crimes that children as young as 10 years old can be charged with. When the General Assembly reconvenes in January, advocates will propose changing state laws to disallow any minor to be charged as an adult, for even the most violent crimes.

Baltimore City State's Attorney Ivan Bates joins Midday to discuss the latest on these youth crime laws in addition to high profile cases before his office.
