Proposed 2026 Polling Place Change

In accordance with E.L. 2-303.1, we are hereby notifying you that the Baltimore City Board of Elections plans to discuss and vote on changing a 2026 Polling Place at their May 21st meeting.    

The change is required due to a recent notice that the Waxter Center located at 1000 Cathedral Street will not be used for elections for the 2026 Primary and General election because of health and safety concerns. The deadline to submit public testimony to the Board is 12:00 noon on Friday, May 15, 2026.
