Images of local election Campaign cards - Allegany County MD

James S. Stafford, a Democrat, promised he “Will serve YOU in Annapolis”. In a heavily Republican district at that time this assurance was not enough to have him voted into the Maryland House of Delegates. At the time of Stafford’s 1962 bid he was an employee of the Queen City Brewery. It is interesting to note that he was among the last members appointed to the Allegany County Board of Education before it became an elective office.
