Early voting in-person for this year’s primary election begins today Thursday, May 2 and runs through Thursday, May 9, (including Saturday and Sunday), from 7:00 am – 8:00 pm. Locations can be found here. Primary Election Day is Tuesday, May 14. For information about all candidates for all offices, see the nonpartisan MoCo360 Voters Guide here and the nonpartisan League of Women Voters Guide here.
While all elections are important, the election of three members of the seven member Board of Education is especially important this year because of the issues to be resolved by the Board, including hiring a superintendent, implementing the state mandated Blueprint for improving education in Maryland, and responding to the calls by the County Council for more transparency in its operations. Parkwood residents who are registered may vote for candidates for each of the three Board of Education open seats, regardless of the district.
MoCo360 also has links to five of the eight forums in which BoE candidates participated.
