How to Make Nominations under New Primary Law in Montgomery County
Special to The Washington Post from Rockville Maryland March 12. Montgomery County Republicans face a funding dilemma under the Crawford county primary system. Each nomination candidate must post 25 and each convention delegate 10, totaling 160 delegates and 1 600, a burden many leaders want to cut. Proposals include trimming delegates to five per district or a one per precinct plan, or nominating a ticket at a convention for the regular primary vote. The party weighs adopting Democratic style rules to allow any candidate to file with 25, and a decision is expected soon.
