Maryland LCV Endorses Second Round of Candidates

There are just 39 days remaining until voters like you from across Maryland will begin choosing candidates when early voting begins on September 3rd.

To help voters elect a true pro-conservation majority, the Maryland League of Conservation Voters (LCV) today released its second round of endorsed candidates for the State Senate and the House of Delegates in the 2010 state elections.

Read our list of endorsed candidates.

With 23 open seats in the House of Delegates and three open seats in the Senate, voters will be sending a minimum 26 new legislators to Annapolis in January. In this round of endorsements, the League endorsed 10 candidates for open seats in the House. With crowded fields of candidates, these endorsed candidates will most often vote for pro-conservation legislation to protect Maryland’s air, land, water, and people.

Additionally, in this round of endorsements the Maryland League is giving its stamp of approval to six candidates who are challenging incumbents in the House or Senate. Those are: Del. Joanne Benson (D) challenging Sen. Nathaniel Exum (D) in District 24; Christopher Jakubiak (D) challenging Sen. Richard Colburn (R) in District 37; Bill Ferguson (D) challenging Sen. George Della (D) in District 46; Mary Beth Pirolozzi (R) challenging Del. Kevin Kelly (D) in District 1B; Judd Legum (D), a challenger in District 30; and Lori Albin (D) a challenger in District 42.
