Mautz to Run for House of Delegates

Johnny Mautz, a St. Michaels native, has officially announced his intention to run on the republican ticket for the Maryland House of Delegates on 2014. He seeks to represent District 37B, which includes: Talbot, Dorchester, Caroline, and Wicomico counties. The seat is currently held by Jeannie Haddaway who, in July of this year, was tapped to run alongside David Craig in his bid for governor.

“When Jeannie announced she was running for Lieutenant Governor and that her seat would be open in the House of Delegates, my first thought was that it is a really important position,” explains Mautz. “I thought of my family and friends and how they have struggled with the policies coming out of Annapolis.”

Mautz is no stranger to politics. He worked as a Special Assistant to Governor Ehrlich from 2003 to 2006 where he dealt with matters pertaining to the Departments of the Environment, Natural Resources, Planning, Agriculture, Transportation, Business and Economic Development. Mautz utilized his law degree in the late 1990s and early 2000s working as counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary committee. He currently is the Legislative Director for U.S. Representative Howard Coble, working on regulatory reform and intellectual property law as well as maintaining oversight of the Department of Justice and the federal Judiciary.
