Prince George's County Question C: Bill to Change Redistricting Plan
Source: elections.maryland.gov
What does this measure do?
If the County Council changes the council district map that its redistricting commission proposes every ten years, it would have to pass a regular county law (a bill), not a resolution. It redraws no district lines and changes no taxes; it only changes the kind of vote the council uses.
Proposed by: Prince George's County Council (CR-054-2026, Council Chair Krystal Oriadha, District 7, and 3 others)
Oriadha is the council chair and District 7 member; she co-founded the grassroots group PG ChangeMakers. She and three colleagues want to change how council district lines are redrawn.

A YES vote means
When the council changes the redistricting commission's proposed council district map, it must do so by passing a bill instead of a resolution.
A NO vote means
The charter keeps wording that lets the council adopt its own change to the commission's district map by resolution after notice and a public hearing.
