House Candidate Eric Knowles Talks Issues

The Eastport-based Republican hopes to unseat incumbent Democrat John Sarbanes in the November election.

Eastport resident Eric Knowles wants to represent Maryland's 3rd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, and he wants your vote. As a Republican, Knowles faces a big challenge. The 3rd District, which stretches from Annapolis to Baltimore County, is considered safely Democratic. In 2010—a particularly difficult year for both incumbents and Democrats—Rep. John Sarbanes (D-MD) retained the seat with 60 percent of the vote, according to the Baltimore Business Journal. Why He's Running If Knowles wins this November, it will be the first elected office that he's ever held. He currently works as a bartender at the Chop House in the Annapolis Towne Centre at Parole. He decided to run for office because he said he sees a …
