Colin C. Richard

Colin C. Richard is a political candidate running for the Montgomery County Democratic Central Committee representing Legislative District 15 in Maryland. As a dedicated Democrat based in Gaithersburg, Richard is focused on improving local party procedures. A central theme of his 2026 campaign is advocating for democratic reforms related to legislative vacancy appointments. Emphasizing that a large percentage of local state legislators were initially appointed rather than elected by voters, Richard strongly supports updating committee policies to mitigate the appointment process and ultimately restore voter selection for public representation.
