		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS The Cecil County Council backed down from a fiscal confrontation with County Executive Danielle Hornberger over a $2.8 million pay boost package for some county employees at an “emergency” Council session on Tuesday (3/22/2022), approving the measure on a unanimous 5-0 vote a week after the plan failed on a 2-2 tie vote and Hornberger falsely accused councilors of “de-funding police.” But Sheriff’s deputies were never included in her legislation in the first place. Hornberger used the official, taxpayer-funded county government website and Facebook page to attack Councilors Bill Coutz (R-2) and Al Miller (R-3) by name in highly partisan terms last week, setting off anger and confusion among citizens and some law enforcement personnel. But Sheriff Scott Adams and leaders of the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) union that represents Sheriff’s Deputies subsequently spoke out, saying that the core of local law enforcement, the patrol deputies and other FOP members, were never covered by Hornberger’s plan and therefore were not being ‘de-funded’ at all. Coutz said on Tuesday he had decided to vote for the legislation this week “reluctantly” because “the county executive has left us with no choice.” He noted that Hornberger was threatening to immediately [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[HARRIS PSEUDO POLL—YOUR EMAIL FOR YOUR VOTE It was hardly a surprise when Rep. Andy Harris (R-1) voted against both articles of the impeachment resolution against President Trump in the US House on Wednesday (12/18/2019), since he had opposed the process from the outset and holds a staunch pro-Trump voting record. So it might seem a bit surprising that he would solicit constituent’s views on the matter in a Facebook “poll” and a telephone robocall just a few days before the House vote—could a possible pro-impeachment outcome perhaps change his mind? Little danger of that, it seems, since the methodology bore no resemblance to any standard of legitimate poll-taking in the real world. The 12/16/19 telephone robocall, voiced initially by Harris, asked listeners to register whether they opposed, “strongly opposed,” supported or “strongly supported” impeachment. But respondents were subsequently told by another voice that their vote would not be recorded unless they agreed to provide their email address and agreed to receive Harris’ newsletter. If the listener declined to do so, the call was terminated without registering the individual’s opinion. Then Harris posted a similar “poll” on Facebook, but this time the personal information demands were even more intrusive: to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County suffered a record or near record snowfall last weekend and county roads crews and contractors toiled around the clock to clear hundreds of miles of roadways and bridges, but the County Council was divided Tuesday on just how good a job was done and whether social media should have been used more extensively to advise the public on snow-clearing progress. But in southern Cecil County—often referred to by some Elkton-based government officials as “the middle of nowhere”—even remote rural county roads in Earleville were cleared to two full lanes and down to the pavement by mid-day Monday. That response was the best in more than 20 years, with lesser snow accumulations in the past, according to some long-time residents. County Director of Public Works Scott Flanigan took the hot seat to explain to a County Council worksession Tuesday morning the actions of DPW employees and contractors who plowed county roads during the recent snow emergency. “Given the magnitude of the event” and “the major drifting problems,” he said, the DPW staff and contractors rose to the challenge. He noted that just “72 hours after the last snowflakes fell” DPW and its contractors had plowed all major county roadways [&#8230;]]]></description>
