		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS It’s a good thing that Ronald Reagan, the late President and conservative Republican hero, never sought a seat on the Cecil County Republican Central Committee. If he had lived here, he wouldn’t qualify under retroactive sanctions now being proposed to ban anyone who ever donated to a Democrat or challenged a GOP nominee, before they were even sworn in to the local committee. (Reagan was a Democratic Party activist and donor before switching to the Republican side.) The campaign to nullify the decisions of county Republican voters—who elected Alan McCarthy, Joyce Bowlsbey and William Coutz to seats on the GOP Central Committee in the July primary but who have not yet been sworn into office—is being led by Vincent Sammons, the multiple online personality and political gadfly. (Sammons, an on again, off again chairman of the local panel got himself installed as chairman again at a secret meeting in August, filing documents with the state Board of Elections (BOE) proclaiming his chairman title effective 8/6/2022. ) Sammons declared in a statement posted on the committee’s Facebook page that the three seats had been declared vacant by the state party and invited local Republicans to apply for the seats.

		<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[Joyce Bowlsbey, the former President of the Cecil County Council and a longtime leader in many county civic organizations, has filed as a write-in candidate in the November general election, seeking to reclaim her District 2 Council seat that she held for six years. She is opposing political newcomer Rebecca Hamilton, who won the recent Republican primary nomination for the seat as part of a “slate” of candidates financed largely by Del. Kevin Hornberger, the spouse of county executive Danielle Hornberger. Bowlsbey joins another write-in candidate, Phyllis Kilby, an eight-year veteran of the Cecil County Board of Commissioners and a leader in farm and civic groups. Kilby is running in November for a County Council seat now held by Donna Culberson (R-4), who was appointed to her seat last year and recently won the Republican nomination for the general election on the same Hornberger-backed “slate.” Both Bowlsbey and Kilby face an uphill fight, since their names will not appear on the printed ballot presented to voters. Instead, they will have to convince voters to write-in their names on the correct lines for the District 2 and District 4 Council races. By filing their write-in candidacies with the Board of Election, [&#8230;]]]></description>
