Their partnership, forged through a successful campaign to save nearly 90 educator jobs from state funding cuts, reflects a shared belief that schools shouldn’t be battlegrounds for partisan agendas. Walsh, a former lobbyist, and Maisano, an ex-engineer and PTA mom, united over concerns about budget cuts and state reforms, co-founding the Carroll Education Coalition. Now facing four opponents for three open seats, they emphasize agreement on core educational issues like factual curricula and trusting teachers, while acknowledging they may disagree on specifics—but will respect each other’s judgment. Their campaign openly lists party affiliations, and while the teachers union has endorsed them, local Republican groups support their rivals, underscoring the county’s political divide.
