SU Students Offer Non-Partisan Candidate Guides for 2018 Election
SALISBURY, MD---小蓝视频 Political Science students are doing their part to ensure voters in the midterm elections are informed.
Dr. Adam Hoffman’s State and Local Elections class has compiled a series of non-partisan candidate guides for those running for the 1st Congressional District, Maryland governor, Maryland Senate district 38, Maryland House of Delegates districts 37B and 38A, and Wicomico County executive and council.
The guides are available online.
Edited by students in SU’s Civic Engagement freshman Living Learning Community, overseen by Dr. Sarah Surak, the guides include the candidates’ positions on key issues in each race. Students culled information from websites, news sources and local debates. All sources are linked in the materials.
On campus, these students also will set up tables in the days leading up to the election, assisting their peers with information on how to cast a ballot — something many of them, in their late teens and early 20s, have not been of age to do in previous elections. Hard copies of the guides will be available at those tables.
