Career

Gilleland unsuccessfully challenged Democratic incumbent Ed DeGrange for a State Senate Seat in 2002, taking 41% of the vote.[1] In 2003, Gilleland was appointed to the Maryland House of Delegates by Republican Governor Robert Ehrlich in May 2003, taking the place of Republican James E. Rzepkowski, who accepted a position within Ehrlich's cabinet as Associate Deputy Secretary for the Department of Business and Economic Development.[2]

Gilleland was defeated in his first election as the incumbent in the 2006 general election by Pamela Beidle.[3] The other two delegates for District 32, Democrats Mary Ann Love and Theodore Sophocleus, both won reelection.

Currently Gilleland is an Account Manager with an educational assessment firm. He is also a former chairman of the Anne Arundel County Republican Central Committee and a former student member of the Anne Arundel County Board of Education.
