In 2013, the retirement of Senator Robert J. Garagiola from the Maryland Senate prompted the appointment of Delegate Brian J. Feldman to fill the remainder of Garagiola's term. This left an open Delegate seat, which was contested by a number of applicants. Fraser-Hidalgo won the final vote of the Montgomery County Democratic Central Committee by a close margin, and on October 16, 2013, was appointed by Governor Martin O'Malley to fill the seat.{{cite news |last1=Wagner |first1=John |title=O'Malley names Fraser-Hidalgo to take over delegate seat from Montgomery County |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/omalley-names-fraser-hidalgo-to-take-over-delegate-seat-from-montgomery-county/2013/10/16/33b10a06-3686-11e3-be86-6aeaa439845b_story.html |access-date=May 9, 2022 |work=The Washington Post |date=October 16, 2013}} He was sworn in on October 21, 2013.
