		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS Cecil County Council member Jackie Gregory (R-5) has filed as a candidate in the 2022 Republican primary for state Delegate in District 36, potentially casting aside the Council seat to which she won re-election just 14 months ago and challenging the all-Republican delegation that has worked together as a “team” for the past eight years to represent the four counties that comprise the 36th. If she succeeds, it would mean that the Cecil County Republican Central Committee would get a second opportunity to pick a successor to fill a vacant County Council seat, as the panel did recently to submit a list of its choices to replace Council member George Patchell (R-4) But Patchell, who resigned to become the Perryville town administrator, had just a year left on his term while an appointed replacement for Gregory would get to serve for more than two years without having to stand before voters. Gregory filed her candidacy papers on 1/5/2022 and created a new campaign finance committee to support her bid to move her political career to Annapolis. Unlike the three incumbent delegates, who are banned from campaign fundraising during the General Assembly session that begins on Wednesday, Gregory will [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS Never let it be said that perennial candidate and three-time loser Michael D. Smigiel, Sr., doesn’t have any more political tricks up his sleeves, even if they aren’t the sleeves on a Cecil County judicial robe that he desperately wants to wear. Now he’s trying for a two-fer: a judicial seat for himself and his old District 36 state Delegate seat for his son and namesake, Michael D. Smigiel, Jr., a young filmmaker and video photographer. Daddy Smigiel lost his delegate seat in the Republican primary in 2014, when he didn’t even carry his home base of Cecil County in the four-county area covered by District 36. Daddy has also lost a previous run for a judicial seat and lost badly two years ago in a GOP primary challenge to incumbent Congressman Andy Harris (R-1st). Smigiel Sr. filed on Monday as a candidate for a Circuit Court judicial seat, running against incumbent judge Will Davis. Davis was appointed by Gov. Hogan to fill a vacancy on the local bench in 2016 and, under state law, must stand before the voters in this year’s elections for a 15-year term. (Davis was recommended for the court by an independent nominating [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[CROW on MOORE&#8217;S MENU at HOGAN CHOWDOWN? Governor-Elect Larry Hogan is hosting a breakfast meeting in Annapolis on Tuesday 12/9/14 at the swank Treaty of Paris restaurant with the five Republican County Executives in the state, including Cecil County Executive Tari Moore. But the seating arrangements at the intimate gathering could be a bit awkward. That’s because another attendee is Alan Kittleman, the newly elected GOP County Executive in Howard County. Moore endorsed his Democratic opponent, Courtney Watson, in the November election—much to the dismay and amazement of local and state fellow Republicans. [ SEE previous CECIL TIMES report here: https://ceciltimes.com/2014/10/cecil-county-exec-tari-moore-breaks-gop-ranks-to-support-democrat-in-howard-county-exec-race-republicans-conservative-uproar/ ] Negative response to Moore’s action was swift and strong especially among GOP conservatives, some of whom vowed to seek retaliation at the party’s state convention with a resolution to censure Moore for her defection. But that talk fizzled in the love-fest of the state GOP convention in Ellicott City this past weekend, where a banner proclaimed, “We’re Back,” and Republicans were so giddy with their newfound power in Hogan’s election as governor in November that there was no room for any finger-pointing at other Republicans. And even dissident “Campaign for Liberty” ultra-conservative factions were muted, with two of [&#8230;]]]></description>
