		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County taxpayers are getting a significant cost break on legal advertising of properties that are delinquent on their county property taxes, thanks to competition to the Cecil Whig. And County Commissioner Diana Broomell (R-4) gets a “pat on the back” for being technically and legally right on her contentious challenges on the issue. But if the county government had bowed down from the outset of Broomell’s demands—to ban the upstart weekly printed newspaper, the Cecil Guardian, from bidding—the established print newspaper, the Cecil Whig, would have continued its monopoly on county government legal advertising, which yielded the Whig and its parent company over $151,000 last year in taxpayer-provided funds. However, as a result of perceived competition from the Guardian, the Whig recently slashed its advertising rates in order to get a lucrative deal with the independently elected county Treasurer to print the listings of properties that have not yet paid their property taxes. So even though the Guardian didn’t get this ad placement, the mere fact of its competition with the Whig netted substantial cost savings to county citizens. Broomell had supported the Whig’s original, much higher bid, saying the Guardian did not meet legal tests required for county [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the run-up to the April 3 primary election, in which all but one of the Cecil County Commissioners is a candidate for one office or another, expect the unexpected. On Tuesday, the lone non-candidate&#8211; the perpetually silent Michael Dunn (R-3)&#8211; suddenly launched a scripted diatribe against Commissioners Tari Moore (R-2) and Robert Hodge (R-5) while Diana Broomell (R-4) piled on Hodge. It was a stunning performance that highlighted Dunn’s narrow views of the First Amendment, concurrence with closed-door actions on expenditure of taxpayer funds, and his adherence to an “enemies’ list” perspective on the conduct of county government business. For Broomell’s part, it was yet another attempt to rescind previously approved actions with a verbal demand but no written proposal, as part of a slam against Hodge. And for the county’s two print news publications—the Cecil Whig and the Cecil Guardian—it was a window on the competition for lucrative government advertising, and some politicians’ perception of the line between editorial independence and taxpayer-funded rewards or punishments for news coverage. Moore and Broomell are competing for the Republican nomination for County Executive, while Hodge is a candidate for re-election, to what will be a County Council seat in District 5 [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Judge Keith Baynes Launches Campaign Fundraiser Season Cecil County Circuit Court Judge Keith Baynes (R), who won a surprise appointment to a vacant court seat late last December by Democratic Governor Martin O’Malley, launched the local campaign fundraiser season on Saturday with a bipartisan, well-attended pig roast at his Calvert home. Baynes has to defend the court seat in the 2012 election and he has created a campaign finance committee and a website, www.keepjudgebaynes.org to support his campaign. Baynes was a longtime assistant States’s Attorney prosecuting criminal cases and also a municipal lawyer practicing civil law on behalf of several towns in the county and the county Board of Appeals on zoning issues. The selection of the Republican Baynes by a Democratic governor for the vacant court seat was widely seen as recognition that Baynes is highly respected in the legal community without regard to party affiliation. At his fundraiser, the crowd of about 200 people was a mix of recognizable Republicans, Democrats and Independents. Among the attendees were former state Del. Dick Sossi (R-36), who is now the Kent Island office director for U.S. Rep. Andy Harris (R-1); Chris Sutton, the unsuccessful Democratic candidate for county Sheriff in the [&#8230;]]]></description>
