Both seats have been vacant since Lafferty and Bromwell each stepped down from the house back in August, to take positions in Baltimore County Executive, Johnny Olszewski's administration.

According to the Governor's office, Jackson is an analyst at the University of Maryland School of Social Work and Forbes is a mediation coordinator for the Orphan's Court for Baltimore County.

Each was recommended to Hogan by the Baltimore County Democratic Central Committee.
