Maryland Gov. Wes Moore's press secretary leaves for campaign role

BALTIMORE — Maryland Gov. Wes Moore's press secretary left his state government role on Tuesday, moving to a senior advisory role on the governor's reelection campaign. Carter Elliott IV, who served as senior press secretary since Moore took office in January 2023, announced his departure in an email Tuesday. 'As my last day in the Governor's Office comes to a close, I just want to reach out to say it was the greatest pleasure of my life to serve in this role and I'm grateful to have gotten to know some incredible people,' Elliott said in the email. 'I grew up in a family where the best career that you could follow was being a farmer, a teacher, or a public servant — this had been my dream for as long as I can remember.' The Baltimore Sun reached out to Elliott for further details about his new role on Moore's campaign. In an email to the governor's staff, obtained by The Sun, Elliott thanked his colleagues for 'making Maryland a home.' He lived in Baltimore before moving to Annapolis this year. Elliott expressed gratitude for his work in the governor's office, which this year included a tumultuous legislative session in which lawmakers increased taxes and cut spending to close a $3.3 billion deficit. He described Moore as 'the best governor in the country' and said 'to work for someone that inspires you is something special.' A native of Virginia, Elliott was previously communications manager for Moore's 2022 gubernatorial campaign, according to his LinkedIn page. He earned an annual salary of $104,000 as Moore's press secretary, according to government data. -------------
