Maryland voters face Question 3 on the November 3, 2026 ballot, a legislatively referred constitutional amendment clarifying that compactness, contiguity, and related criteria apply only to state legislative districts while authorizing the General Assembly to grant the state Supreme Court original jurisdiction over congressional challenges. Recent UMBC polling shows 53 percent opposition among likely voters, with stronger resistance from Republicans and independents, though 19 percent remain undecided weeks before early voting begins. The measure emerged from an August 2026 special session and survived lower-court blocks via a September Supreme Court ruling that revised ballot language. Trader consensus at roughly even odds reflects these partisan splits, lingering voter skepticism toward loosening congressional rules, and the potential for late campaign shifts in turnout or messaging to alter the outcome.
