Voter Resources
As voters, it can be intimidating to scan down a long list of races and candidates on your ballot– many of whom you are not familiar with – and feel like you are equipped to choose between them. When we receive our sample ballots, we often look for candidates’ websites and social media pages, and we look to see if we can find additional information about them in voter guides, candidate questionnaires, and forums.
To make those searches quicker and easier on you in this election cycle, we’ve decided to collect many of them in one place. Here on our Voter Resources page, you’ll find direct links to Lisa Maisano and Julie Walsh’s websites, Facebook pages, and candidate videos. You’ll also find links to various voter guides, questionnaires, and forums, where all six candidates in the 2026 Carroll County Board of Education race are featured.
We hope this page will be a helpful resource to you as you make your decisions, and we hope you’ll pass it on to others who are trying to decide who to vote for in this race.
