Anne Arundel County Voters Put The Keep Our Judges Slate First
The Anne Arundel County Keep Our Judges slate, consisting of the sitting Judges Pamela Alban, Elizabeth Morris, Rob Thompson, and Richard Trunnell won both the Democratic and Republican primary elections on June 2 by winning the first four spots on each primary ballot.
The four sitting judges were appointed by Governor Larry Hogan after undergoing a rigorous evaluation process designed to assure the appointment of the most qualified and best suited judges to serve the citizens.
In a time when our community is having important and necessary conversations about inequality in our justice system, we are deeply grateful for the trust the voters have placed in us to fairly apply the law. This was a unique election and we are grateful for the widespread support we received from voters across the county.
We also want to thank the bipartisan group of Anne Arundel elected officials who supported our campaign. This election demonstrates that positive messages matter and we are proud of the campaign we ran. We must also thank the volunteers and donors who gave of their time and resources to help us along the way and especially to our families for their encouragement and strength during this entire election.
The four judges will now appear on the November 3rd ballot.
THANK YOU!
Judge Pamela Alban

We are not part of this, we do not support this, and we condemn this type of activity. We have spoken with Mr. Adams and have shared our outrage and disappointment over these tactics. Our campaign is about earning your trust so that we may continue serving you as judges of the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County,” the Keep Our Judges Slate of Judge Pamela Alban, Judge Elizabeth Morris, Judge Rob Thompson and Judge Richard Trunnell.
