On June 10, the Maryland League of Conservation Voters released its first round of endorsed candidates for Attorney General, Comptroller, Senate and the House of Delegates in the 2010 Primary Elections. Earlier this year, the League endorsed Governor Martin O'Malley for re-election.

As we continue our efforts to restore the Chesapeake Bay and our waterways, lead the way to a clean energy economy and leave the state in better shape for future generations, Marylanders must have elected officials who speak out for the environment. These elected officials are the frontline who can be counted on to do the right thing.

More endorsements will be released in the coming weeks and months, to help conservations voters like you elect true pro-conservation candidates!

At the Maryland League of Conservation Voters, we are dedicated to passing strong environmental legislation, which is why who we elect matters - particularly at the state level, where we have a great opportunity to make a substantial difference by increasing the conservation majority in the Maryland General Assembly.
