City Council Considering Election Rules
The College Park City Council plans to discuss how to handle the timing of special elections at their regular meeting at 8:00 p.m. tonight, Tuesday, March 6th. Readers of this website will remember the January 16th special election for two vacancies on the city council fell during winter break when few students are in College Park, because the city charter required the vacancies be filled within 45 days.
City Council Student Liaison Jesse Blitzstein told us the discussions tomorrow could eventually result in an amendment to the city charter. We strongly urge supporters of student voting rights to attend the meeting.
