Summary
The Allegany County Board of Elections approved election-judge appointments as listed on the vacancy report and confirmed the alternate early voting center at the Allegany County Department of Emergency Services in Cumberland; the minutes from Feb. 3 were also approved at the meeting.
At its meeting, the Allegany County Board of Elections approved a slate of election judges as recommended in the office’s vacancy report and confirmed the designated alternate early voting center for the 2026 elections.
Administrator (speaker 4) recommended that "the election judges be appointed by the board as assigned on the vacancy report." The board placed that recommendation in the form of a motion and approved it by voice vote. The transcript records the action as approved by the board with no named dissent.
Earlier in the agenda the board approved the Feb. 3 minutes after speaker 4 moved and the chair (speaker 3) seconded; the chair said the motion "passes unanimously." Under old business, staff recommended keeping the same alternate early voting center for 2026 — the Allegany County Department of Emergency Services, 1140 PPG Road SE, Cumberland — and the board approved that recommendation.
Administrator (speaker 4) said the office is continuing to update the election calendar, printing templates ordered from the State Board of Elections and preparing training schedules for judges. The office reported completing returning-judge assignments for attendees of recent meet-and-greet training sessions and said it is actively reviewing 2024 workers to flag them as returning judges.
No roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript for the appointment motion; the meeting record indicates approval by voice vote.
