		<description><![CDATA[William C. Manlove narrowly retained his seat on the Cecil County Board of Education, according to final vote counts, and he slightly widened his election night winning margin over challenger Kevin Emmerich. Although the contest was officially non-partisan, the closeness of the race indicated there was spillover from the national political climate. Manlove, a former County Commissioner and an Earleville Democrat, defeated Emmerich, a Republican, by a final vote of 18,756 (51 percent) for Manlove to 17,756 (48.3 percent) for his challenger. The election night tally was 17,832 (51 percent) for Manlove, to 16,892 (48.3 percent) for Emmerich. During two rounds of absentee ballot counts plus a provisional ballot tally, Manlove easily retained his frontrunner status and expanded his final vote margin of victory. The final tally was not unexpected, since the number of absentee ballots distributed before the election was about evenly divided between Democrats and Republican&#8211; unlike past years when local GOP backers waged active campaigns to sign up their voters for absentee ballots and got a much stronger absentee tally. &#8211; But overall, the School Board race was much closer than had been expected, as conservatives rallied around Emmerich, a Republican and member of his party’s Central [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County delivered a sweeping margin to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, reflecting national sentiment, while statewide Maryland voters strongly supported Democrat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election. Trump carried Cecil County with 27,579 votes, or 64.4 percent of the total, while Clinton received 12,651 votes, or 29.6 percent. The Libertarian ticket received 1,544 votes (3.6 percent) and the Green Party ticket had support from 533 local voters (1.2 percent.) There were also 497 “other” or write-in votes for president (1.2 percent.) Statewide, Clinton won 59.6 percent of the vote while Trump received 34.7 percent. Maryland Democrats outnumber Republicans by about a 2-to-1 margin. Cecil County is now a majority Republican county. Only one small local precinct—the Elkton-based 4-2, which casts ballots at the Cecil Manor Elementary School—gave Clinton a win, with 450 votes to 361 for Trump. It was also the only local polling place that favored Democratic US Senate candidate Chris Van Hollen (437 votes) over Republican Kathy Szeliga (359). Van Hollen won a landslide statewide victory in the race&#8211; with 60 percent of the total vote&#8211; to replace the retiring Sen. Barbara Mikulski(D).
