HB 391 Maryland House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

County Boards of Education - Elections for Members Representing Specific Districts - Alterations

HB 391 changes election rules for county boards of education in Calvert, Cecil, Garrett, and Montgomery counties. The bill requires that members representing specific districts (like commissioner districts or board of education districts) be elected solely by voters within that district, rather than county-wide. For example, in Calvert County, three members must be elected from their specific commissioner districts by those district voters, while two serve at-large. This directly affects how voters cast ballots and which candidates are elected to represent defined geographic areas on local school boards.
