As a member of the County Council in 2017, Ball voted in favor of legislation which led to the creation of the Howard County Citizen’s Election Fund, and also voted to override a veto of the prior County Executive, who did not support the program. The Fund was created to provide public campaign financing to a candidate in a County office to encourage small, private donations.
Under the program, candidates for County Executive can receive up to $700,000 in public matching funds, after they collect 500 qualifying contributions totaling up to at least $40,000. A County Council candidate can receive up to $85,000 in matching funds, after receiving 125 contributions totaling up to at least $10,000.
Executive Ball has dedicated $1.25 million for the county’s public financing system over the past two years, the first time the program has been funded. The 2022 election cycle is the first time it will be used.
