Do the Dems have any incentive at all to not do an 8-0 gerrymander?  I assume they have a veto proof majority on the state level.

They do. Anything less than 7-1 is obviously a nonstarter. I think the reason that the current map isn't 8-0 is annoying incumbents with annoying requests (e.g. one wanted to be in the DC, Baltimore, and Annapolis media markets to boost a potential future statewide run) but my money is on 8-0 after redistricting.

Maryland Democrats when they see a Freedom Caucus wingnut across the bridge from Annapolis: "I'm too weak"

Tennessee Republicans when they see a Blue Dog in Nashville: "UNLIMITED POWER"

Hogan vetoes, House has overridden, Senate about to debate.

Update: The Senate has now overridden the veto as well, making the maps law. Lawsuit time!

Wow. Would be a pretty big upset if this is struck down.

Assume this will be appealed, but don't know that it will matter.

Mid decade redistricting isn't illegal in Maryland, so theoretically the state senate could Merrick Garland Hogan's remaining nominees and redistrict in 2024 with a friendly CoA, no?
