The Talbot County Democratic Central Committee is seeking applicants to fill a vacancy within its leadership. Due to the gender-balance requirements, a male applicant will be selected for this vacancy.

The Talbot County Democratic Central Committee (Talbot Democratic Party) commends the latest action and stands proudly with the plaintiffs listed in the litigation. We have been taught that our shared heritage & history is one of sanctuary, security, invitation, and peace. While we are proud of our Eastern Shore melting pot; proud of the heritage and tradition of the waterman, the hunters, the farmers, and so many others who have passed their craft from one generation to the next, it is past time for a thoughtful introspection and an honest conversation on the darker side of Talbot County’s history: the racial issues that have also passed inexplicably from one generation to the next.

Launching this effort on what some would call the high holiday of April 20, we felt it appropriate to begin with marijuana policy. A controversial topic, the public’s opinion has shifted dramatically on marijuana legalization/decriminalization issues over the years. Feel free to do some individual research prior to taking our survey or simply jump right in and provide your feedback!

On Sunday, I witnessed the watermen community expressing gratitude for the protection received during tumultuous times and praying for all fleets' blessing - including recreational boats. While watching, I dared to think if it would not be possible for all of us who love and live around the Bay to find solutions simultaneously enabling our creeks' protection and dignified conditions for the brave watermen to make their ends meet.
