Cecil County - County Council and Board of Education Elections - Single-Member Districts

HB 815 proposes constitutional amendments requiring Cecil County to elect both its County Council members and Board of Education members from specific single-member districts starting in 2032. Under this bill, each council member would represent a defined geographic district, with the winner determined by the most votes cast within that district (a plurality). Similarly, Board of Education members would be elected from the same council districts, with residency requirements and term limits remaining unchanged. This change would shift elections from the current system to district-based voting for both bodies, affecting all Cecil County residents who vote in these local elections.
