Charlotte Kaminski, left, of Westminster, shares a laugh with provisional judge Olivia Mead while getting checked in to vote in Maryland’s primary election at Winters Mill High School in Westminster Tuesday, July 19, 2022. 
As a Baltimore County provisional election judge, I would urge Nicolee Ambrose, the Republican National Committeewoman for Maryland who recently penned a commentary in The Baltimore Sun, and others with the time to work the election and ask questions during their training (“Maryland mail-in-ballots vulnerable to theft,” April 8).
As I have learned, if a voter checks in to vote and has been mailed a ballot, he or she must vote “provisional.” This means the in-person ballot will not be scanned but rather transported and reviewed and verified at headquarters to ensure only one vote.
We need judges, especially Republicans. Sign up now!
