Nicole Alt Myers Expected To File To Run For House of Delegates 1C Seat

August 23rd, 2017 by WCBC Radio

Former Cumberland City Councilwoman Nicole Alt Myers Is expected to make it official today – filing to run for what will be a vacant House of Delegates 1C seat. With incumbent Mike McKay now pursuing the Allegany County Register of Wills seat- he has taken himself out of running for a second term in Annapolis. If McKay is selected to fill the vacant register of wills seat, he will resign his House seat immediately-   leaving the two county Republican Central Committees – Allegany and Washington – to select his successor.  There are several rumored candidates in Washington County said to be eyeing the seat- most notably County Commissioners President Terry Baker.  Ironically, in Allegany County it is also the president of the county commissioners- Jake Shade- whose name is most often mentioned as a possibility. With Alt Myers filing to run, she is seeking to fill the seat once held by her husband Leroy Myers between 2003 and 2014- having pulled a major election upset to win the office when he defeated Speaker of the House Casper Taylor.  Nicole’s pursuit of the office has been anything but a secret, with her name having been mentioned as early as two years ago as a potential candidate.
