Maryland Del. Neil Parrott is scheduled to take Maryland Secretary of State John McDonough to court Thursday morning over language of the ballot measure that will decide whether the state keeps its controversial new congressional districts.

The measure McDonough approved for the ballot “is a mere 23 words and omits any reference to the fact that [the bill the General Assembly passed in October] makes material changes to existing congressional districts,” according to the complaint, filed by Parrott, R-Washington County, in Anne Arundel County Circuit Court.
