Mayor Craig A. Moe has established a workgroup to explore the possibility of a creating a vote by mail system for the upcoming City elections in November 2021.

Several Municipalities in Prince George’s County and around the State have already moved to a vote by mail system due to the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Mayor Moe met with members of the City of Laurel Board of Election Supervisors to discuss the possibility of vote by mail for City of Laurel elections and a contingency plan for the 2021 City elections.

The Board of Election Supervisors agreed to consider developing a vote by mail plan and requested that Mayor Moe add two to three additional residents to the workgroup to assist them.

Mayor Moe agreed with the Board’s recommendation to add The Honorable Donna L. Crary and Rhonda Whitley, Esquire to the workgroup.

The workgroup will examine the issue and submit recommendations to the Mayor’s Office by December 31, 2020.
