The Prince George’s County Council will feature two additional council members, who will serve at-large and represent the county as a whole rather than a single district. The measure received 66 percent of the countywide vote.
The measure — Ballot Question D — will add two additional seats to the nine-member council, and stipulated that a council member who was elected to two terms of office as a county district member cannot serve more than two consecutive terms as an at-large member.
