Hagerstown, Md. (WDVM) — "The Maryland primary election is not until April 28 but candidates, campaigns and election officials are making preparations for voters to cast their ballots. As of now, the primary will be held as scheduled — but campaigning and rallies can be impacted in the weeks leading to it.

The proverbial elephant in the room for next month’s election, though, is the coronavirus. Could it be as consequential as the 9-11 terrorist attacks which postponed New York City’s September 11 municipal primary?

At the Washington County Board of Elections this week, a voter asked officials if the primary would be changed to cast ballots by mail only. He had been hearing rumors. Clerks at the board said no such decision has been made."
