The 40th district is located in the central western portions of Baltimore City and contains the Druid Park Lake, Druid Hill Park and The Maryland Zoo. Educational institutionsCoppin State University, Baltimore City Community College, University of Maryland School of Law, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore are all located in the 40th district. High schoolsThe 40th district is also home to two of Baltimore's oldest African-American highschools: Douglass High School (1883) and Carver Vocational Technical High School (1925). Elected representativesEach of Maryland's 47 legislative districts has one state senator and three delegates. The 40th district is represented in Annapolis by Delegates Antonio Hayes, Nick Mosby and Frank M. Conaway, Jr. During the four years prior to the 2006 elections, two of the delegates, Howard "Pete" Rawlings and Tony Fulton, died while in office. Marshall Goodwin and Catherine E. Pugh were appointed to finish their terms. Rawlings and Fulton were democrats, as are Goodwin and Pugh. Prior to the 2006 democratic primary, the only incumbent delegate in the district, Salima Marriott, decided to run for the Senate seat being vacated by the district's senator. Catherine Pugh also decided to run for the same seat leaving the newly appointed Goodwin as the only incumbent in the race. The vacancies drew a large crowd of contenders; including Conaway, Barbara Robinson and Shawn Tarrant, who all finished ahead of Goodwin. The General Election in November, therefore, featured all newcomers for the three open seats. General election results, 2006
