Montgomery County Circuit Court Judge James Bonifant said he’d issue a ruling at 3 p.m. Friday on the request from the Maryland State Board of Elections.

More than 1,000 Marylanders answered questions ranging from whom they plan to vote for to the top issues they’re considering.

Two months after the primary, Maryland’s electorate has coalesced behind party nominees in the general election race to succeed term-limited Gov. Larry Hogan, but at the same time, held firm on some issues, such as their opinions of President Biden and former president Trump, their frustration with inflation and their attitudes toward abortion.

The poll contacted 1,008 Marylanders age 18 or older by landline and cellphone from September 8-12.

Maryland Democrats are well-positioned to sweep statewide offices, according a new Goucher College poll in partnership with The Baltimore Banner and WYPR.

A Montgomery County judge will hold a hearing next week.

Baltimore’s water contamination crisis this week offered an unusual glimpse, mid-campaign, to see how two candidates would respond to a public safety situation they might face as governor.

The debate, scheduled for Oct. 12, will feature the two leading candidates to succeed term-limited Republican Gov. Larry Hogan.

Wes Moore and Dan Cox are only two of the five candidates on the ballot for governor. The public should hear from all of them.

Experts said a back-and-forth over how many debates to schedule is common when one candidate is perceived to be leading the race.

Just two Black men have been elected governor anywhere in the U.S.

With the primary elections over, Democrats have nominated Wes Moore and Republicans have nominated Del. Dan Cox. Both men are unique in that neither has any state public sector executive branch experience.
