Шаблон:Infobox officeholder David R. Brinkley (born September 24, 1959) is an American politician who served as the Secretary of Budget and Management for the U.S. state of Maryland from 2015 to 2023.

Early life, education, and pre-political career

David Brinkley was born in Frederick, Maryland, the only son of Dr. George Ross Brinkley and Jean Brinkley. He was raised in New Market, Maryland and graduated from Linganore High School in 1977.

He attended Gettysburg College and received a Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Maryland, College Park in 1981.

He entered the life insurance business with Acacia Mutual Life Insurance Company, and earned his professional designations – Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) & Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) – from The American College of Financial Services in Bryn Mawr, PA in October, 1984.

During the early-1980s, David was an EMT/Firefighter with the New Market District Volunteer Fire Company, and a volunteer EMT driver as Frederick County initiated its Paramedic program.

Maryland House of Delegates

In 1994, Brinkley was elected to the House of Delegates, serving two terms representing District 4A. He was elected to the House of Delegates along with Paul S. Stull defeating Thomas H. Hattery and Thomas Gordon Slater. Incumbent George Littrell ran for the State Senate seat left open by Charles H. Smelser. Littrell was defeated by Timothy R. Ferguson.

As a member of the House of Delegates, he was Deputy Minority Whip from 1997 to 1998. In 1998, Stull and Brinkley easily won re-election defeating Democratic challenger Valerie M. Hertges

Maryland Senate

In 2002, Brinkley was elected to the Maryland Senate, representing District 4, which covers Carroll County and Frederick County. He defeated Republican incumbent Timothy R. Ferguson in the primary election. He went on to overwhelmingly defeat Timothy Schlauch in the general election.

In 2006, he defeated Republican challenger Paul Chamberlain in the primary election. He ran unopposed to any Democrats in the general election and convincingly defeated the write-ins.

Tenure

He was the Senate Minority Leader from 2007 to 2008.

In 2010, he was selected as Minority Whip alongside Senator Allan H. Kittleman who was selected as Minority Leader. When Kittleman resigned in 2011, Brinkley again ran for Minority Leader, but was rejected in favor of the conservative Senator Nancy Jacobs. Brinkley immediately resigned his position as Minority Whip upon losing the election to the more conservative Jacobs. Brinkley returned to the position of minority leader in 2013 following a five-year hiatus.

2012 congressional election

Шаблон:Main article After redistricting, 85-year-old Republican incumbent U.S. Congressman Roscoe Bartlett was placed into a district that Obama won. Portions of Baltimore and Harford counties as waddell as Carroll County were taken away from the 6th District during redistricting. More of Montgomery County was put into the district, while another part of Montgomery County was removed and added to northern Frederick County to reform the 8th District. His current district has Obama at just 40%, while the newly redrawn district has Obama at 56%.

In November, his Chief of Staff, Bud Otis, was reportedly soliciting the support of Maryland Republicans to run for his seat should he decide to retire. On November 30, 2011 Roll Call reported that Brinkley will run for Maryland's 6th congressional district and, “if necessary,” will primary Bartlett, according to his friend and supporter, state Delegate LeRoy Myers. In the Republican primary election in 2012, Brinkley won nearly 20% of the vote, falling short of Bartlett's 43.6%. Bartlett went on to lose the general election to Democrat John Delaney.

2014 election

Brinkley faced another Republican challenge from Delegate Michael Hough, who aligned himself with the more conservative Tea Party faction Hough accused Brinkley of being a "tax-and-spend liberal" and of cooperating too much with the Democratic majority and then-Governor Martin O'Malley. Hough crushed Brinkley in the primary election, 68%-32%.

Newly elected governor Larry Hogan appointed Brinkley to the position of Secretary of Budget and Management in January 2015.
