What a first day of in-person early voting- over 154K voters with 1819 new registrants and voters- SDR! This figures surpassed the entire EV period in the 2024 primary and every day of EV from 2020 to present. Haven't looked beyond 2020- but could be a historic number of voters

- Thank you for all of the well wishes and kind words of support. It is a tremendous honor and privilege to chosen as the next State Administrator. I look forward to tackling the challenges that lay ahead.
- Some people bring in a sink to the office on the first day, I do bagels.
- I have an absolute ZERO tolerance for harassment or making threats against election officials. They have the highest level of integrity & need to do their mission in a safe environment. TY to @GovWesMoore for increasing our protections. It’s shameful an incident has occurred
- SBE was notified by our federal partners that a suspicious package was en route to our office. The Post Office was able to intercept the package before is arrived today. TY to our federal partners for prompt notification & assistance. We will not be deterred from our mission.
- Day 2 - 140,222 voters with 1,292 new voters using SDR. Keep voting Maryland.
- The first 90 minutes of in person early voting- nearly 11K voters!
- Nearly 1 out of 5 active eligible voters in MD have requested a mail-in ballot. WOW. And almost 50% of the mail-in ballots have been voted and received by the local boards.
- What a day of voting. Over 168k voters and nearly 4k SDR voters. Incredible.
- It is a honor to receive an unanimous Senate vote for consent to my appointment as State Administrator of Elections. Thank you for this trust and privilege.
- I just want to thank all the hard working election judges, pages and election officials that made Election Day happen. Their efforts, sacrifices and support are the foundation of our democracy. And now, on to the mail-in ballot canvassing- bc every vote counts & will be counted
- Over 77k at 6pm. Will we break the 100k mark for the first day of voting. #MDvotes. Democracy works when your voice is heard, cast that vote. Remember each race and question is important.
