An article in yesterday's editions on the Baltimore City Council vote against changing the timing of municipal elections incorrectly stated that the election board supported the change.

According to Marvin L. Cheatham, president of the city Board of Election Supervisors, his office agreed that changing the timing to coincide with presidential elections would save money but took no position for or against the proposal.

The Sun regrets the error.
