District 12, which will elect three candidates to the House of Delegates in 2014, encompasses parts of Baltimore County as well as Downtown Columbia. The three delegate seats in the district are wide open due to incumbent delegates Steve DeBoy and Jimmy Malone retiring at the end of the 2014 session.
