Maryland Farm Bureau PAC 2018 Voter’s Guide
This guide identifies the candidates who have earned the first-round endorsement of the Maryland Farm Bureau’s Political Action Committee (PAC). They are endorsed because of their support for the farm families who produce local food here in Maryland. Additional endorsements may be made after the Primary.
We hope you will study this guide and carry it with you to the voting booth. Early voting begins on Thursday, June 14th and runs through Thursday, June 21st. Primary election day is Tuesday, June 26th. This election too important to go the polls uninformed!
