what happened regarding the district with Rogers Morton representing it?

These are the dates given for the service of Rogers Morton as U.S. Rep. from this district. There is no break in service, but the table indicates there was a change in the district as of Jan. 3, 1967. What was going on? It's not the change coming just after a census (that was in 1960).

January 3, 1963–January 3, 1967 January 3, 1967–January 29, 1971

If that is the district in accordance with the 1960 census, the table on the right needs to be adjusted. A change in the district in accordance with the 1960 census would have kicked in on Jan. 3, 1963 (with the 1962 election being based on that change) -- RIGHT AT the start of Rogers Morton's service as U.S. Rep. from this district.

Election results and Recent Election Results

The 2006 election appears in both lists, and there are discrepancies in the number of votes between those 2 references.

In 2012 (election still in the future at this writing), there is a blank next to Andrew Harris' name. This is a result of Wendy Rosen giving up her candidacy (and it being too late to put a replacement onto the ballot, thus causing Wendy Rosen's name to remain on it). This is already mentioned in the article about 2012 Congressional elections in Maryland. John LaFerla, who narrowly lost to Wendy Rosen in the primary, has now, to the extent possible, become the replacement candidate, but he faces a write-in campaign because he can't be put on the ballot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 19:03, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wendy Rosen now facing charges

Allegedly voted in Baltimore County in 2006 and 2010 without the legal right to do so.

If this belongs in some other article's talk page instead of here, please advise.
