Maryland Gov. Wes Moore defended his push for a special legislative session on congressional redistricting in an interview Thursday with WTOP anchors Anne Kramer and Shawn Anderson.

The state, Moore said, should respond to what he called broader national threats to voting representation.

In the aftermath of Tuesday’s primary election, Moore also talked about President Donald Trump’s executive order on mail-in ballots, which would require states to turn over voter databases to the federal government.
