Most Frederick County state legislature races will be contested
When the filing period for the 2026 election cycle closed on Tuesday, all but one Maryland General Assembly race connected to Frederick County had at least one Democratic and one Republican candidate.
The exception was in District 5, where Republican incumbent Justin Ready is the only candidate for the state Senate race. There are no Democrats running.
Incumbent Karen Lewis Young is the only Democrat in the District 3 state Senate race. She will face the winner of the Republican primary, either Shelley Aloi or Angela McIntosh.
Aloi is a former city of Frederick alderman. McIntosh was the 2022 Republican nominee for the District 3 Senate seat and lost to Lewis Young.
