Rosedale resident Kim Ross is expected to be choosen as the new delegate for District 8.
Ross was selected in a 5-1 vote by the six members of the 8th District Democratic State Central Committee. The entire Baltimore County Democratic State Central Committee is expected to confirm Ross tonight.
Then the committee will send her name to Governor Wes Moore’s office where he is expected to appoint Ross to the vacant delegate seat.
She would replace former Delegate Carl Jackson who was appointed to the state senate last month.
Ross was one of four Democratic candidates to apply for the delegate vacancy in Legislative District 8.
Marsha Briley-Savage, Caitlin Klimm-Kellner and Shannon Sheetz also applied for the position.
Jackson said he is happy with the choice.
“Congratulations to Kim Ross who was voted forward by the District 8 Central Committee to become the next Delegate from Legislative District 8,” Jackson wrote on social media.
According to her bio, Ross was appointed to the CCBC Board of Trustees by Governor Wes Moore.
She is president of the Franklin Point at Deerborne Homeowners Association and a member of the Rossville Elementary Parent-Teacher-Student Organization.
