This is an updated list of candidates for local and state offices in Montgomery County as of Sept. 14.
Here are voter guides for other candidates on the ballot.
Maryland Reporter’s Voters Guide: Statewide candidates for governor, comptroller, attorney general
Maryland Reporter’s Voters Guide: Candidate for Congress
Other voter guides from other publications will be linked when they are updated for the general election.
The general election is Tuesday, Nov. 8. Polls are open 7 a.m. – 8 p.m. Early voting will take place during the same hours Oct. 27 – Nov. 3. You can vote early at any early voting center in the county you live in; each county has at least one. Click here for more information about early voting. To find your polling place for Election Day, click here.
The Maryland State Board of Elections must receive requests for a mail-in ballot (formerly known as an absentee ballot) by Nov. 1. Voters may opt to receive their mail-in ballots by U.S. mail or email. After Nov. 1, mail-in ballots can be picked up at your local board of elections, and be completed there or submitted later. Mail-in ballots must be dropped in a ballot drop box by 8 p.m, on Election Day, Nov. 8, or postmarked by that day if mailed. Click here for a mail-in ballot request form.
The deadline to register to vote or to update your voter registration is Oct. 18. Voters may register at their polling place during early voting or on Election Day with proper ID. Click here for more information.
Click on the links below for selected stories about the candidates published in the past year.
Endorsements for organizations are listed below each candidate’s name; individual endorsements are not. If a candidate has an endorsement page on their campaign website, we link to it.
Campaign finance reports for all candidates are now available on the State Board of Elections website. You can look up any candidate using this link: www.campaignfinance.maryland.gov/
Click on disclosures, view filed reports, click continue and then enter the candidate’s name (last name first) in the “candidate/committee name” highlighted box.
