Meet Judd
Judd Legum is running for State Delegate to create jobs, cut waste and inefficiency from state government, improve our schools and clean up the Chesapeake Bay.
Judd is the only candidate who refuses to accept any money from state lobbyists or PACs. He understands the importance of representing the people of District 30 and not special interests.
Judd recently served as a chair of the City of Annapolis Transition Team, focusing on the economic redevelopment of the City Dock and Market House. Judd has also been appointed to the Severn River Commission, providing advice to Anne Arundel County on how to restore one of the Bay’s dirtiest rivers. He has been endorsed by The Capital, the League of Conservation Voters, the Sierra Club and the Teachers's Association of Anne Arundel County.
