Court of Appeals Pushes Back Deadline to Withdraw Candidacy, Fill Vacancy for Primary

The Maryland Court of Appeals on Monday pushed back the deadlines to withdraw a candidacy and fill a candidate vacancy for the July primary election. The deadline for someone to withdraw their candidacy for the primary originally expired on April 18 — but the Court of Appeals on Monday extended that deadline to today, April 25, according to an order from the high court. The deadline to fill a vacancy in candidacy for the primary originally expired on April 20, but that deadline has now been pushed back to Wednesday.
