Election judge selection disputed by Frederick County panel
Frederick County Board of Supervisors of Elections picked 1992 election judges, upsetting Democratic Central Committee members who urged district chairpersons be allowed to recommend judges. Chairman Slater said the move pre-empted the July 1999 agreement to involve chairpersons.
