District 5 Delegates to the Democratic National Convention {_getChooseLabel(this.selections.length)}

DUTIES: Convention delegates elected in the Primary are part of the state delegations that officially select their party’s presidential candidate at the party’s national conventions. Presidential nominees are not elected directly by the voters in the Primary. Rather, voters in each state choose delegates to represent them at the national conventions.HOW ELECTED: Democratic voters will elect delegates to their national convention from each Congressional District (CD), with the number based on the number of Democratic voters in that district. Each Congressional District will elect approximately equal numbers of female and male delegates, with some non-binary delegates included within the state total. Each candidate’s gender will be listed under their name on the ballot. The presidential candidates will receive delegates in proportion to their share of the vote in that district. For additional information see the party’s rules on the party s website.

"My extensive involvement in Democratic party activities, including grassroots organizing, policy advocacy, and leadership roles, has equipped me with the skills and knowledge needed to effectively serve as a convention delegate. I have a deep understanding of our party's values, platforms, and priorities, and I am committed to representing our constituents with integrity and dedication at the Democratic convention.
As a Democrat, I believe President Biden should have given room for Kamala Harris to run, fostering diversity in the primary. The prospect of a Trump-Biden rematch raises concerns, echoing widespread dissatisfaction. I'm an Undecided candidate representing Democrats seeking alternative choices. I'm particularly troubled by Biden's foreign policy shortcomings, such as unresolved hostage situations and Palestinian issues. My candidacy resonates with Democrats dissatisfied with the status quo.

My political interest began with the Carter/Regan presidential campaign at 14. I began volunteering to pass out flyers for local office candidates. Once I became a registered voter at 18, I continued learning and assisting with many elections in my area and national elections. Knowing how important each election is and remaining an active voting citizen, has helped me to prepare.
President Joe Biden has proven his dedication and worth to our country and the American people. President Biden guided our country through the COVID-19 pandemic and restored our allies' confidence in America. President Biden has been working tirelessly to improve the infrastructure in our country and bring jobs and a better future for our country. President Biden has been ready long before day one.

After being selected in the 2020 election as Delegate for Joe Biden to the Democratic National Convention, I have continued efforts to support our President. As a current member of the Maryland House of Delegates, I support funding our schools, supporting labor, promoting small business, and improving our economy. As a Delegate I commit to a Democratic platform that will support our President and improving America.
President Biden has done a great job in handling our economy and providing sound public policy. In particular his efforts to support Maryland with infrastructure funding has earned praise by me and many Maryland leaders. President Biden also stands for civil rights and allowing everyone a chance to vote and improve their lives. I fully support our President and his leadership.

For the last 27 years, I have been employed by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers at the International Headquarters. I am currently serving as Director of Support Services. I think that my position within organized labor uniquely qualifies me to serve the people of Maryland's 5th Congressional District.
President Biden has proven to be the most labor friendly President since FDR. His Chips and Science Act, Infrastructure Bill and American Rescue Plan bolstered employment for working families and guaranteed jobs for the foreseeable future. Under his leadership Union Membership has increased.
I’m a dedicated public servant having built my career working in local, state and national levels of government. I have had opportunities to interface with constituents, businesses, interest groups and lawmakers throughout Maryland. I proudly serve because I believe in the Democratic party’s values and the importance of carrying out our platform as we fight for America’s democracy during these unprecedented times. This is my life's work.
I have heard firsthand about the trials, tribulations and triumphs of voters across Maryland by meeting people where they are taking extraordinary care with our most vulnerable populations. It’s because of their stories that I venture out to engage voters on behalf of Democratic candidates that put people over politics. Joe Biden embodies this mission which is why I pledge my support to re-elect him as President of the United States.
I am a long-time Democrat and volunteer. I am currently the Chair of the Calvert County Democratic Central Committee.
Character. Experience. Proven track record for getting things accomplished.
