		<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[Alan McCarthy, the current Vice President of the Cecil County Council, won a solid victory Tuesday in his race to become only the second County Executive under Charter government. McCarthy, a Republican, defeated former County Commissioner and Port Deposit Mayor Wayne Tome, a Democrat, by about a two-to-one margin. McCarthy tallied 27,229 votes from early voting and Election Day ballots, while Tome received support from 13,849 voters. McCarthy racked up 66.1 percent of the vote while Tome won 33.6 percent. Absentee, provisional and overseas ballots will be counted later but the margin indicated those later counts were not likely to upset the McCarthy victory. In the only other contested race on the local ballot, William C. Manlove narrowly retained his seat on the Cecil County Board of Education in a non-partisan race. Manlove, a former County Commissioner and an Earleville Democrat, defeated political newcomer Kevin Emmerich, by a vote of 17,832 (51 percent) to 16,892 (48.3 percent). The contest was much closer than had been expected, as conservatives rallied around Emmerich in a campaign that challenged spending on county schools and opposed the “Common Core” curriculum. Two County Council seats were uncontested in the general election, since Democrats failed to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County voters took advantage of eight days of early voting for the 2016 presidential, state and local election as 10,809 ballots were cast, or 16.6 percent of “active eligible” voters, according to the state Board of Elections (BOE). Republicans cast a slightly higher proportion of their votes than Democrats. Early voting was conducted at one polling place—the county administration building in Elkton—and ended on Thursday 11/3/16, after voting began the previous Thursday. Throughout the period, voter traffic was steady, with the highest turnout—1,790 people—on the first day of voting. Cecil County’s early turnout rate lagged behind the statewide tally of 22 percent of registered voters casting ballots ahead of the Tuesday 11/8/16 Election Day. But Cecil’s early vote was well ahead of the 2012 turnout—the last presidential election year. That early vote period was a day shorter than this year’s but 9.42 percent of then-registered local voters cast early ballots. The hotly contested presidential race between Hillary Clinton, a Democrat, and Donald Trump, a Republican is clearly fueling voter interest in this year’s elections. Locally, the only partisan contest is for Cecil County Executive—between Alan McCarthy, a Republican, and Wayne L. Tome, Sr, a Democrat. A non-partisan race for [&#8230;]]]></description>
