I called this Commission a sham when it was first formed, and some of Larry Hogan's biggest supporters attacked me for it.

@CherylKagan & @DelegateReznik #MD can do better! Instead of being 19th with barely 54% of eligible voters participating, we can expand early voting, provide postage for absentees, & allow for election day registration. Let's increase participation & strengthen civic engagement! https://t.co/jeNRPI9c8x
