Career

Delegate Cluster first got involved in politics interning for Congressman Bob Ehrlich during his last two years of college at Towson University. After graduating he was given the opportunity to run the Maryland Republican Party field operations for the 2002 election. After that historic "win" he went on to work for Lt. Governor Michael Steele as Director of External Affiars in his office until 2007.

In October 2013 he was named Executive Director of the Maryland Republican Party.[2] The Party was $150,000 in debt and only had $10,000 cash on hand when he took over, but with the leadership of Chairman Diana Waterman and Joe, they were able to right the ship and help raise over $1.8 million dollars the following year. This helped Larry Hogan win one of the biggest upset elections[3] in the country in 2014 and put the Maryland Republican Party back on the map. In 2016, Joe was appointed to fill the vacancy of former Delegate John Cluster, by Governor Larry Hogan.
