Ballot measure would shield Baltimore County inspector general from interference

Kelly Madigan is not running for anything, but she would like your vote anyway. Madigan is Baltimore County’s first inspector general, a role she has held since 2020. The Nov. 5 ballot includes a question about whether the inspector general’s office should be enshrined in the Baltimore County Charter. It’s needed, she and others say, because while public officials love to talk about transparency and accountability, they don’t always walk the walk.
