Polls will open Tuesday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at dozens of locations across Anne Arundel. Ballot drop boxes will also be available until 8 p.m. Tuesday for voters to deposit ballots they had mailed to them.
There have been 11 Anne Arundel County executives since the position was created with the new County Charter in 1964. On Tuesday, voters will choose between incumbent Democratic County Executive Steuart Pittman and Republican County Council member Jessica Haire.
People are free to vote for the candidate of their choice, and our plans to move forward on priority projects are in place regardless of who sits in the office at the Arundel Center. But I don’t think the city of Annapolis could have a better partner than Steuart Pittman.
If you care about the Chesapeake Bay and its creeks and streams, if you care about our forests and fields, if you care about our quality of life, if you care about the education of our children, and if you care about the fiscal integrity of our county, I urge you to vote for Steuart Pittman for county executive.
