Among the 50 U.S. states, 47 have a Secretary of State, and in 35 of those, the position is elected rather than appointed. Maryland’s Secretary of State is an elected official. This emblem features the Maryland state seal, flanked by two supporters: a farmer with a spade and a fisherman holding a fish. Surrounding the shield is a red ermine mantle topped by a crown and two pennants. Encircling the design is the state motto in archaic Italian: Fatti maschii, parole femine—officially translated as “Strong deeds, gentle words,” symbolizing bold action tempered with civility.
