		<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[NEWS ANALYSIS As in-person early voting in the General Election began on Thursday (10/27/2022), Cecil County voters will decide five local Charter amendments, including changes in selection of Ethics Commission members and requiring greater “transparency” on spending and real estate deals by the County Executive. The proposals are designed to address problems that emerged in the first two years of Danielle Hornberger’s administration. In addition, a proposed amendment to the State Constitution (Question 2) would require a state Delegate or Senator to “maintain” residency withing the boundaries of the district from which he/she was elected. Delegate Kevin Hornberger, Danielle’s husband, lived outside the boundaries of his former District 35-A, according to state land records, financial disclosure statements and sworn mortgage refinancing documents. He got away with using his parents’ address for years because no one challenged his residency within the limited less than two-week window for challenges to the State Board of Elections after a candidate files for office. Currently, the state Constitution only specifies a requirement for district residency at the time of filing but is silent on maintaining residency after an election and for the duration of the four-year Delegate term. A ‘yes’ vote on this state question [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS If there is Karma in politics, Del. Kevin Hornberger (R-35B) is facing it: so confident of a re-election victory in a three-way race, he devoted much effort and political cash to promote allies of his wife, Cecil County Executive Danielle Hornberger, for the County Council in Tuesday’s Republican primary election. But he apparently failed to see the very real threat to his own legislative seat. And the chief target of the Hornbergers’ avalanche of glossy, negative and untrue flyers, incumbent Councilor Al Miller (R-3), is just five votes behind their own protégé, Bob Gatchell, an actor with a repertoire of cross-dressing drag show performances and a political newcomer. There are at least 1,026 Republican ballots still to be counted in a canvass of dropbox and mailed ballots that begins on Thursday 7/21/2022, according to state Board of Elections (BOE) data for Cecil County. Additional mail-in ballots may be received before a second canvass next week. It remains to be seen if Kevin Hornberger can hang on to or expand his small 43-vote margin of victory over Adam Streight, a county Sheriff’s Deputy and former president of the FOP Lodge 2 police union.
