Camden Yards could be used as a Baltimore voting center for Maryland's November election

Baltimore City election officials are finalizing a deal to use Oriole Park at Camden Yards as a voting center for the November election.

City elections Director Armstead Jones scouted the downtown baseball stadium Monday, looking at how many pieces of election equipment could be placed at the site.

Ballpark and election officials envision using the Baltimore Orioles facility as a larger voting center, Jones told his board last week.

“It’s on light rail and other transportation. It’s a large facility. I think it has a lot of advantages with the parking, as well,” Jones said last week. “We’re grateful for the opportunity.”
