The incident occurred following a candidate forum held in Cambridge with Dan Schwartz.

St. Mary’s elects Republican commissioners, new school board members

After months of hand-shaking and campaigning, St. Mary’s County candidates in this year’s General Election stayed up late Tuesday in anticipation of the results. Early voting and Election Day results from all 27 precincts were tabulated as of 10:14 p.m. Tuesday. Mailed ballots will not be fully counted for up to 10 days. A familiar face will likely return to the District 3 seat on the board of county commissioners. Republican John O’Connor, who held the seat from 2014 to 2022, was leading by 46% compared to 38% for Democrat Joshua Kyte and 15% for incumbent Commissioner Mike Alderson Jr. Alderson was elected in 2022 as a Republican but was required to run unaffiliated this year because of his federal government job, according to the Hatch Act. Thanks to his eight years of experience on the board, O’Connor can “hit the ground fully running,” he told Southern Maryland News on Wednesday. “The voters want a different approach,” he said, adding that he plans to implement a new set of budget instructions, halt excessive spending, lower fees and consider the long-term consequences of development in the county. Kyte and Alderson did not respond to a request for comment by deadline. Another
