    May 17, 2020 The Honorable Larry Hogan Governor of Maryland 100 State Circle Annapolis, Maryland 21401-1925 Dear Governor Hogan: We write on behalf of the Prince George’s County House and Senate Delegations. While we appreciate the hard work you and your Administration have done thus far, we write with grave concern about the status of coronavirus in Maryland, particularly in Prince George’s County, and your recently announced plans to reopen, which, in our view, are not justified by, data, facts or your own previously-stated metrics and roadmap to recovery. Furthermore, we are alarmed at your Administration’s silence and lack of response to urgent requests from Prince George’s County, the hardest hit jurisdiction in the State—these requests being made earnestly in an effort to protect Prince Georgians and save lives. In an April 30, 2020 letter, Prince George’s County Executive, Angela Alsobrooks, wrote your liaison, Steve Schuh, as follow-up from a discussion about the County’s needs, including increased hospital capacity, expanded testing, improved contact tracing, and increased supplies of personal protective equipment. If we are all “Maryland Strong” then we must be responsive, coordinated, and all must work together. Regarding hospital capacity, we appreciate your decision to re-open parts of Laurel Regional Hospital and providing 135 additional beds, but your Administration has not responded to requests for additional medical tents and critical care staffing needs in portions of the County urgently at need. When the State decided against opening a facility at the Prince George’s Sports and Learning Complex in Landover, the County was promised additional medical tents, however, the state reneged on its promise and the County never received a response.

MANDEL: THE MAIL FRAUD AND EN BANC PROCEDURAL ISSUES INTRODUCTION When Governor Marvin Mandel and his five codefendants were convicted of mail fraud1 and racketeering,2 Maryland politics seemed hopelessly corrupt. In a space of five years Marylanders had seen one of their United States senators, their former governor, and then their sitting governor haled into federal court on criminal charges.3 Yet United States v.Mandel 4 is disturbing, not merely because it suggests that Marylanders again were victimized by one of their top 1. 18 U.S.C. § 1341 provides in pertinent part: Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises . for the purpose of executing

The responsibilities of the position have changed and duties have been expanded and diversified. Similarly, the MACo staff has grown, from the charter staff of Executive Secretary Lovelace and a stenographer, to the seven staff members who serve the organization today. Each Executive Director has not only redefined the position, but, along with his or her staff, has helped to shape and develop MACo itself. Robert Lovelace As discussed in the previous chapter, Robert Lovelace, a former city manager, began his duties with the Association upon the establishment of the Symons Hall office beginning June 1, 1960. Per the agreement with the University of Maryland, he joined their staff as a lecturer in American Government. As the first Executive Secretary, as it was then called, Lovelace set the pace and provided a basic structure for those that would come after him. As is the case today, in 1960 the SACCOM Board was made up of county officials for whom Association service was only one aspect of their responsibilities; Lovelace was the first person involved with the organization that could focus wholly on its development.

    Maryland Association of Election Officials Representing the Local Election Boards of the State of Maryland MEMORANDUM To: Michael Cogan, Chairman, Maryland State Board of Elections Linda Lamone, Esq., Administrator, Maryland State Board of Elections From: David Garreis, President Maryland Association of Election Officials (MAEO) Date: August 5, 2020 Re: Plan for Success - 2020 Presidential General Election The members of the Maryland Association of Election Officials (MAEO) are writing to provide our plan for the successful conduct of the 2020 Presidential General Election. The State of Maryland is at a critical juncture in the Election process. There are slightly more than 90-days until Election Day. The Election Community must have a set-in-stone plan for the conduct of the General Election. Failure to do so will result in the failure of the Election process in Maryland. MAEO has provided the Maryland State Board of Elections (SBE) and the Governor with our professional, non-partisan recommendations for conducting the General Election in writing and in conference call meetings several times. MAEO is dedicated to providing all eligible voters with the ability to cast their ballot in a safe and secure manner. We are making our final appeal to your decision making authority before we enter a period where no amount of backpedaling or last minute changes will avoid a catastrophic failure of the 2020 Presidential General Election. We are providing four common-sense recommendations for the conduct of the Election in the hopes that the powers that be will find a way to adopt these policies and provide the voters of Maryland with a convenient and hassle-free opportunity to vote, either by mail-in ballot, during early voting, or on Election Day.

Maryland first celebrated its founding in 1834 and has continued to do so in 50 year intervals. The pattern for celebrating thus established, Maryland was ready as 1984 approached to look back with pride on 350 years of political, social and cultural achievement. As in previous an- niversaries, the celebration of the past became an affirmation of the future. To prepare the state for its 1984 celebration, the 1982 General Assembly of Maryland passed a resolution (Appendix i) creating the 350 Coordinating Com- mittee which subsequently became the Maryland Heritage Committee.
