Harford County Primary Ballots for the September 14, 2010 Election

From Harford County's "The Dagger"

The Harford County Board of Elections posted the Primary Election ballots for each polling place this week, allowing voters to see what their ballots will look like in advance and hopefully eliminating any voting booth surprises on Election Day.

The ballots are listed alphabetically by polling location and party affiliation (Democratic, Republican, Unaffiliated) on the Harford County Board of Elections web site: http://www.harfordcountymd.gov/Elections/Primary/

The ballots are fairly straightforward, with the average Democratic ballot running 3 pages in length, while the average Republican ballot is 5 pages long. The ballot for unaffiliated voters consists of only one question – the nonpartisan race between for District’s Board of Education representative.

The Republican ballot is so long primarily because of the highly-contested Republican Central Committee race, which runs two pages long, features 37 candidates, and comes with the instructions, “Vote For No More Than Twelve.”
