Baltimore's estimated population was 593,490 as of July 1, 2019, new census data shows. The 1.5% decline from 2018 was Maryland's biggest drop. Up 1.8%, Frederick County saw the biggest gain. https://t.co/jv7kkfqsej

Maryland had 37 coronavirus cases as of the state's update this morning, a number the governor expects to "dramatically and rapidly rise."

Over 2/3 were in the D.C suburbs. There were no cases in Western Maryland yet and just one on the Eastern Shore.

Of the many troubles of @BaltimorePolice, overtime is a common denominator - borne of poor recruiting, under staffing & corruption; spurring budget overruns & overworked officers & likely alleged abuses.

Turnout for Maryland’s 7th District special primary was low, but not the worst in recent memory.

Think Baltimore police overtime is out of control? In Maryland’s understaffed prison system overtime spikes to $129 million https://t.co/8A1zjfzmVq

Critics say Maryland’s five-star rating system inflates the quality of a low performing school and can obscure gaps in performance between students of different races and economic groups.

h/t to the thoughtful year-end homicide "by the numbers" reports that @eyeseast & @lauranorton used to do for @homicidewatch DC (eg https://t.co/a9skoalk4I), which i modeled today's story about Baltimore hitting the 300 homicide mark after.

Baltimore leaders have been touting a slowing crime rate based on limited data. But such short-term analysis comes with lots of caveats, and long term, the story is far more complicated. https://t.co/MSY1FcnG8U
