General Gross, CounselEsquire Federal Election Commission Washington, D. C. 20463 Re: MUR 1486 L1500 Dear Mr. Gross: This letter is written in response to your letters of October 22 and 29, 1982, advising me, as treasurer .of Citizens for Sarbanes (the "Sarbanes Committee"), of the above-referenced complaints, and is intended to serve as the Sarbanes Committee's response. With regard to MUR 1486,. the Complaint filed by The Washington Legal Foundation does not name the Sarbanes Committee as a respondent. The Complaint does appear to allege, however, that the Sarbanes Committee received in-kind contributions from the Council for a Livable World attributable to fund-raising costs which have not been reported by the Committee and whiich have a value in excess of'the $5,000 contribution limit applicable to multi-candidate political action committees. The other allegations made in the Complaint appear to be directed to CLW and the other named respondents rather than the Sarbanes Committee. MUR 1500, Kenneth A. Gross, Esquire January 12, 1983 Page Two filed by Senator Sarbanes' Republican opponent in the 1982 - Maryland general election, Lawrence J. Hogan, likewise appears to be addressed to the reporting of in-kind contributions to the Sarbanes Committee .by CLW. Although neither complaint is particularly clear on the point, both also appear to question the CLW practice of collecting contribution checks made to the Sarbanes Couuaittee and forwarding those checks to the Sarbanes Committee.

    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.

Member of Committee TO JANE Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2016 https://archive.org/details/1966marylandgube00hatf INTRODUCTION It is hypothesized that the salient open occupancy issue accounted for much of the variance in electoral preference in the 1966 Maryland Guber- natorial Election. We propose to validate this assertion by (1) establishing the existence of definite attitudes on integrated housing and political representation of such attitudes (2) verbal and quantitative analysis of candidates' campaigns and voter support in the primary and general elec- tion, and (3) analysis of the place occupied by the open occupancy issue in the campaign and the degree to which it determined electoral preference in this election.

In Horne v. Dep’t of Agric., 135 S.Ct. 2419, 2427-28 (2015), this Court held that “direct appropria- tions of real and personal property” are treated “alike.” Yet, in a published ruling broadly applicable to all types of personal property, the Fourth Circuit has ruled that this holding in Horne applies to personal property only if the regulation in question requires the owner to “turn over” the property to the government or a third party. The Fourth Circuit also construed the Maryland Con- stitution in such a way as to effectively eliminate any protection for lawfully purchased personal property.

    March 30, 2020 The Honorable Lawrence Hogan, J Robert Green Governor of Maryland Secretary of Md. Dept. of Public Safety & Cor. Services State House 6776 Reisterstown Rd., Ste 310 Annapolis, Maryland 21401 Baltimore, MD 21215 re: Coronavirus and bipartisan support for protection of inmates of Md. prisons and detention centers Dear Governor Hogan and Secretary Green: I write you again on behalf of Maryland Alliance for Justice Reform (MAJR), updating our support for you to take proactive steps to prevent the further spread of coronavirus in Maryland prisons and detention centers. Earlier today, the first three coronavirus infections have been reported in Md. prisons, following yesterday’s report of numerous infections from Clifton Perkins Hospital which is frequented by correctional officers. Coronavirus infections, as of yesterday, also were reported in prisons or detention centers in Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New York and Wisconsin with Governors’, corrections officials, and/or court orders for expedited releases in Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, Ohio, California, Colorado, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah. We thank you for your early steps making Maryland a leader in civilian public health measures. But, more is needed to protect Marylanders in correctional custody. For this reason, MAJR also urges you to take the primary steps as recommended by faculties of Johns Hopkins Schools of Public Health, Medicine and Nursing, as well as Community- Oriented Correctional Health Services, and the Vera Institute, stated below. Prioritize prevention first and foremost. To reduce contact between people, corrections authorities and other detention administrators should: 1. Use their authority to release as many people from their custody as possible.
