Tuesday is the primary election in both DC and Maryland. If you are registered and haven’t voted early, go vote!
DC residents can find their polling place here, and Maryland residents here.
Greater Greater Washington has endorsed the following candidates, all in the Democratic primaries:
- DC Council at-large: Peter Shapiro
- Ward 4 DC Council: Max Skolnik
- Ward 7 DC Council: Tom Brown
- Ward 8 DC Council: Jacque Patterson
- Maryland 6th Congressional District: Rob Garagiola
Your ballot isn’t the only important part of your vote. Volunteers will also be at polling places soliciting signatures for important ballot initiatives. In DC, make sure to sign the petitions for Initiative 70, to ban corporate campaign contributions. In Maryland, don’t support the effort to send Maryland’s new marriage equality law to a referendum.
