The City of Bowie will hold an election on Tuesday, November 5, 2019 to elect members of the City Council consisting of a Mayor and six Councilmembers to hold office for a term of four years. Each registered voter may cast a total of four votes. All City voters may vote for Mayor and two at-large Councilmembers. Voters in each district may also vote for a district Councilmember.
The City is divided into four election districts. There are two polling places in each district. Voters must vote at the polling place assigned to their neighborhood. Polling places are different from those used for the general election. Voters will receive a postcard from the Prince George’s County Board of Elections, indicating where they should vote in this City election. Polls are open 7 a.m. - 8 p.m.
Be on the lookout for a special election edition of the Bowie Spotlight mailed to all City households; it includes a sample ballot and other election details. For more information, contact the City Clerk at 301-809-3029 or ahernandez@cityofbowie.org or visit www.cityofbowie.org/elections.
