Prince George's Special Elections Wrap Up with County Executive, Council District 5 Races

Prince George’s County voters head to the polls today to fill two high-profile vacancies — county executive and County Council District 5 — marking the final step in a series of cascading special elections triggered by recent leadership changes.

The County Executive race will determine who serves the remainder of the current term, following former Executive Angela Alsobrooks’ election to the US Senate. The Democratic nominee, State’s Attorney Aisha Braveboy, faces Republican Jonathan White. Acting County Executive Tara Jackson did not seek the position.

In County Council District 5 — which includes communities such as Bladensburg, Cheverly, and Glenarden — voters will select a replacement for Jolene Ivey, who vacated the seat after winning a special election for an at-large seat last year. Democrat Shayla Adams-Stafford, a former school board member, faces Republican Fred Price Jr.

Early voting took place from May 28 to June 2. Polls are open today from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. Ballot counting will be completed by June 13, with the winners scheduled to be sworn in on June 19, coinciding with the Juneteenth holiday.
