Ballot Questions for Maryland voters

Reported by: Sherrie Johnson
Last Update: 11/04/2008 3:14 pm

As voters head to the polls on Tuesday, a lot of attention has been placed on the historic Presidential race.  Maryland voters also face a number of other issues on the ballot as well.

In Baltimore City, financing projects include money for cultural institutions, libraries, recreation centers and economic development.  Ballot question A would amend Baltimore's charter to establish the city's Department of General Services as a cabinet level agency.

Baltimore County's ballot has a number of issues.  All but one are routine matters of borrowing money to finance parks, storm drainage, street repair, community college construction and rural land preservation.  The county's Question A has stirred some controversy.  If approved, it would amend the Baltimore County Charter to allow council members to hold jobs in state government.

In Anne Arundel County for Question A, voters must decide if any bill sent to the county executive that is not signed within 10 days will become law. Voters will also decide whether to expand the county's Ethic Commission from three to seven members.
