		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS It was the first meeting of the new Cecil County Council, with a 3-2 majority of close political allies of County Executive Danielle Hornberger elected in November, but things didn’t exactly go to plan at the 12/6/2022 worksession. Long moments of silence, accompanied by overheard stage whispers and visible head shakes, thwarted Jackie Gregory’s push to assert full control of the Council by getting herself elected President and ally Donna Culberson as vice president. (Gregory won, Culberson didn’t.) Gregory was the vice president of the Council and a core advocate during the summer Republican primary campaign of a “slate” of candidates seeking to unseat two fellow GOP incumbents: Bill Coutz in District 2 and Al Miller in District 3. Coutz lost to Rebecca Hamilton in the primary while Miller survived vicious attacks, in glossy flyers financed in part by US Rep. Andy Harris (R-1) and Del. Kevin Hornberger (R-35), the spouse of the County Executive. Gregory, whose picture and quotes were displayed on some of the attack flyers, is currently employed as a district aide to Harris and Danielle Hornberger previously held the same job for Harris. After the elections, with a Hornberger-allied majority, it was a foregone [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County voters turned out in force for in-person voting on Tuesday (11/8/2022), but the final outcomes of multiple races will not be determined until the completion of the next week and a half of scheduled Board of Elections (BOE) counts of mail-in and provisional ballots. But initial counts in the District 4 school board contest indicate an upset win for Renee Dixon over incumbent William Malesh. In two County Council races with organized write-in vote campaigns, the mechanics of vote counting showed totals of all write-ins from in-person early voting and Election Day ballots but did not yet allocate any votes to the declared write-in candidates. (Ballot scanners automatically register marked ovals indicating a write-in vote was being cast, but a separate BOE staff review is required to allocate those votes to candidates who have formally qualified under election rules to be counted by name.) But the initial counts indicate that even when write in votes are eventually counted, the uphill challenges to winners of the Republican primary in Districts 2 and 4 are unlikely to succeed. Five amendments to the county Charter, mostly designed to address problems that have emerged during the first two years of Danielle Hornberger’s [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS As in-person early voting in the General Election began on Thursday (10/27/2022), Cecil County voters will decide five local Charter amendments, including changes in selection of Ethics Commission members and requiring greater “transparency” on spending and real estate deals by the County Executive. The proposals are designed to address problems that emerged in the first two years of Danielle Hornberger’s administration. In addition, a proposed amendment to the State Constitution (Question 2) would require a state Delegate or Senator to “maintain” residency withing the boundaries of the district from which he/she was elected. Delegate Kevin Hornberger, Danielle’s husband, lived outside the boundaries of his former District 35-A, according to state land records, financial disclosure statements and sworn mortgage refinancing documents. He got away with using his parents’ address for years because no one challenged his residency within the limited less than two-week window for challenges to the State Board of Elections after a candidate files for office. Currently, the state Constitution only specifies a requirement for district residency at the time of filing but is silent on maintaining residency after an election and for the duration of the four-year Delegate term. A ‘yes’ vote on this state question [&#8230;]]]></description>
