BALTIMORE — Baltimore voters will be asked this fall to decide if the city’s future elected leaders should be limited to two terms, the only successful question to emerge from multiple petition drives to put issues on the ballot this year.
Petitioners for the term limit question, financed by Sinclair Broadcast Group Chairman David Smith, collected the necessary 10,000 signatures to send the issue to voters, city election officials announced Monday.
Two other efforts, one to establish recall elections and another to create a fund to “seek enabling legislation” for the creation of a Baltimore Regional Transportation Authority, fell short of the mark.
