		<description><![CDATA[AN APPRECIATION Derrick Lowe, the two-term elected Clerk of the Cecil County Circuit Court, died suddenly Wednesday, leaving the county in shock and mourning for a dedicated, knowledgeable public official who loved his job and Cecil County. Lowe had just visited the Cecil County fair and was excited about participating in a 4-H club livestock auction, according to his Facebook posts last week. He had a long history of involvement in local civic and charitable groups, and had the distinction of being the only local elected official to have no opposition in the last 2014 elections, when he was re-elected for his second term in office. He was a Republican. Lowe was, in perhaps an old-fashioned term especially in local county politics, a gentleman. Kind, soft-spoken, civic-minded, and with a gentle sense of humor, Lowe embodied all that is best about Cecil County civic-mindedness and dedication to public service. “He really loved his job,” said Cecil County Circuit Court Administrative Judge Keith Baynes. “He was very professional,” Baynes said, but he had “an easygoing way” about him that made people like and respect him and feel: “What’s not to like?” “He was a wonderful guy,” said Baynes, who worked with [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[State Threatens Criminal Case against PAC that Paid for other PAC’s Anti-Baynes Flyer Even more than a year after the last election, one of the deepest secrets of the local campaign season—who really paid for a vicious attack flyer against Cecil County Judge Keith Baynes—is still a secret. But the State Board of Elections has threatened criminal action against leaders of a political action committee (PAC) that has refused to file any required financial disclosure reports. The tawdry tale involved a flyer accusing Baynes of being soft on pedophile cases and was published under the authority line of a PAC called “Protect Cecil’s Children.” But that PAC was really primarily financed by yet another PAC—“Republicans of Cecil County,” that has not filed required reports to the state elections board. Both PACs were organized by individuals with longstanding political ties to Del. Michael Smigiel (R-36), who was resoundingly defeated when he ran in 2012 for a Circuit Court judgeship. Judicial candidates run on a non-partisan basis in the primaries of both the Democratic and Republican parties. Baynes, a Republican, and Jane C. Murray, a Democrat, had been appointed to fill two Circuit Court vacancies and under state law were required to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County voters swept Republicans into office in most major local contests Tuesday, turning the five-member Board of Commissioners into an all-GOP panel for the first time while ousting the longtime Democratic Clerk of the Circuit Court and the Democratic State’s Attorney. But, in one of the ultimate ironies of Tuesday’s balloting, voters overwhelmingly approved an overhaul of county government to a charter system of governance, under which a new county executive position will be created and the commissioners transformed into a County Council with fewer individual powers. Voters have repeatedly rejected ballot issues for charter in the past but advocates argued that the county government had become dysfunctional by having to receive approval from the state legislature for even minor legislative actions. The only incumbent Commissioner running Tuesday, Democrat Brian Lockhart, was solidly defeated by newcomer Michael Dunn, R, a legislative aide to Del. Michael Smigiel (R-36.) Lockhart, the President of the current board, received 11,942 votes, or 43.5 percent, while Dunn topped him with 15,497 votes, or 56.4 percent, in District 3, which is based in the Rising Sun area. Another Republican victor was Diana Broomell, who defeated former Superintendent of Schools Carl Roberts, a Democrat, in District [&#8230;]]]></description>
