The article has the deets.The little checking I did suggests that the monitored secure lock boxes will be located at the early voting centers. The boxes will be available around Oct 1.

This political atlas of MD from Larry Sabato at the UVA provides county level metrics on political social media impact, and more.

The second site is interesting, but I have to wonder where they get their data from. Trump at 54% approval in Garrett while at 68% in Allegany sounds a bit off to me.

When I saw the Allegany result my first thought was that you were skewing the numbers. :-)

Lol, nah, no paid work this cycle. Only BOE is contested locally this year, and those races rarely involve much spending. I do better in off-cycle elections when House of Delegates and County Commissioner races are on the ballot.

The death of the local DEM party makes many of these uncontested (or barely contested) though, so really GOP primary season is where the money can be made these days.

That printed ballot apparently won't work. The local Election Board receives it and details two officials to transcribe your choices onto the card stock machines can read.

Sorry about the paywall.

Thanks, wish I had known that earlier. If it was explained on the website I missed it. I requested an absentee for both primary and general at the same*time. Guess my only alternative is to vote in person.

I wouldn't do that. Just use your printed ballot. The reason is that you're already listed as having received a mail in ballot so the interpretation at the polling place would be that you're trying to vote twice and would be denied.
