		<description><![CDATA[Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent who drew strong support among many Cecil County conservatives in his failed bid for a US Senate seat two years ago, has stuck his toe into Cecil County local politics this year by endorsing a controversial “Campaign for Liberty” candidate for County Council—much to the surprise and dismay of many of Bongino’s past supporters here. Why an out-of-area candidate would dabble in Cecil County Republican politics before the primary election decided the party’s standard-bearers for the general election, and do so without discussions with his local supporters, is both puzzling and troubling to many of his past admirers here. But the decision may have something to do with solidifying ultra-conservative support for his latest political foray. Bongino, who previously lived in Severna Park and now cites a residence in Frederick, is running this year for a US House seat in the sprawling 6th District covering western Maryland and part of suburban Montgomery County. Bongino faces a challenger in his own GOP primary that will decide the candidate who gets to wage an uphill struggle against the incumbent, Rep. John Delaney, a Democrat, in November. Delaney defeated longtime incumbent Republican Roscoe Bartlett in the [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Michael W. Dawson, a longtime Perryville resident and former candidate for a state delegate’s seat, has filed as a Republican candidate for the Cecil County Council in District 4 for the 2014 election—looking to replace the controversial incumbent, Councilor Diana Broomell (R). Michael W. Dawson (MWD) – NOT to be confused with another local political figure, Michael A. Dawson, known locally as MAD Mike (MAD)—ran as a Constitution Party candidate in 2010 for the delegate seat held by longtime incumbent David Rudolph, a Democrat. MWD Dawson held the balance of power in that three-way general election contest, winning some 750 votes that ended up tipping the election to Rudolph in a close race against Republican and “Campaign for Liberty” candidate Ted Patterson. [SEE Cecil Times election report here: https://ceciltimes.com/2010/11/rudolph-swims-against-gop-tide-in-delegate-win-sen-jacobs-re-elected/ ] “I’m concerned that, as a county, we are wasting precious time,” Dawson said in explaining his reasons for running for the County Council. Since the recent transition to Charter government, he said, County Executive Tari Moore has shown leadership but the County Council has been mired in internal bickering. “I’m a roots and wings type of leader,” Dawson said in an interview with Cecil Times, explaining that his approach would [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thumbing his nose at citizen activists who have accused him of appointing political “cronies” to county positions, Cecil County Commissioner Michael Dunn (R-3) announced Tuesday that he will name Ted Patterson—a fellow member of the Smipkin political slate—to a seat on the citizens’ budget advisory committee. It was the fourth controversial appointment in about as many months by Dunn, who announced his intention at a Tuesday morning worksession of the county commissioners. However, unlike some past Dunn appointments, he did not try to force the issue to an immediate vote and said he would give fellow commissioners time to consider the matter. Patterson would replace Michael J. Halter, a part-time assistant state’s attorney who resigned from the budget panel recently to protest the current “political climate” among a three-member majority of the current Board of County Commissioners. In a late September resignation letter to the commissioners, Halter, a Republican, said, “In light of the current political climate, I do not feel that the majority of the County Commissioners have the public’s best interest at heart, and as such, my conscience will not allow me to be a part of the current process.” Halter was initially appointed after he wrote a [&#8230;]]]></description>
