WESTMINSTER, Md. (AP) - Republican leaders in Carroll County have recommended former county commissioner Robin Bartlett Frazier to fill a vacant state Senate seat.
Frazier would fill the seat that's soon to be vacated by Sen. Joe Getty. He's been tapped to serve as policy and legislative director for Republican Gov.-elect Larry Hogan.
Frazier tells The Carroll County Times that she supports Hogan's agenda of cutting taxes and making the state more business-friendly.
She was nominated by the county's Republican Central Committee. Hogan would have to confirm her appointment to the seat. If he rejects her, he could appoint any person he wishes.
Frazier served two terms as a county commissioner. She lost in a June primary to Stephen Wantz.
