		<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[NEWS ANALYSIS In a season of court challenges to re-districting lines for legislative and congressional districts and extended candidate filing deadlines, the list of contenders for local and state offices was supposed to be set on Friday (4/15/2022), but the state Board of Elections is still having problems assigning some candidates to the proper district under the new maps. And two local contenders withdrew their candidacies on Monday while law enforcement challengers could pose pushback against Hornberger administration policies that limited cops’ pay. At the same time, the non-partisan races for the local Board of Education show an emergent coalition of challenger candidates opposed to state COVID-related mask rules and state curriculum requirements. And the County Council contests include three candidates running together as pro-County Executive Danielle Hornberger allies on a joint ticket and fund-raising organization for the GOP primary. All candidates, except in certain non-partisan races, who filed locally are Republicans. No Democrats filed as candidates for local office in their party’s primary, although the party could later put up a candidate for the November general election ballot. It was a surprise when County Council member Jackie Gregory (R-5) filed as a candidate for state Delegate in Dist. 36 [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[UPDATED with new counts released mid-day Wednesday by election officials] Cecil County voters braved long lines winding around polling places on Tuesday and during a week of early in-person voting, with wait times averaging an hour or so, in a high-stakes election of national and local importance. But even as early voting, election day and most mail-in ballots were counted by Wednesday morning (11/4/2020), there were still more mail-in, military and provisional ballots to be tallied by 11/13/2020, under state law. Despite the wave of early in-person voting and crowds of voters showing up on election day, most voters reported lines moved swiftly and Board of Elections staff were well-organized, including provisions for seniors and the disabled to be seated indoors while place-holder cards secured their place in line outdoors. The key questions for the county were the outcome of a contested race for County Executive and one school board seat, with a Charter amendment pertaining to qualifications to run for County Council also on the ballot. COUNTY EXECUTIVE: Danielle Hornberger, a Republican who won her party’s nomination overwhelmingly in the June mail-in ballot primary contest, held a compelling lead over her Democratic challenger, Jeff Kase.
