Census Data Release
On August 12th, the U.S. Census Bureau released the 2020 Census data for the nation. Go to the data for Maryland. While this data will be used for redistricting, Maryland law requires it to be adjusted to have incarcerated individuals reallocated to their last known address. This is required at the local and municipal level as well as the congressional and state level. Preliminary work has been done to comply with this requirement and completion of this task is expected by the first week of September. Once this is complete and if licenses become available, the Board will announce both in the Frederick News Post and this website regarding a fair and transparent process.
