AP Race Call: Kamala Harris wins Maryland

Vice President Kamala Harris won Maryland and its 10 electoral votes on Tuesday

Vice President Kamala Harris won Maryland and its 10 electoral votes on Tuesday. Maryland is a heavily Democratic state that is home to many federal workers next to the nation’s capital. The state has a Black population of about 30%, the largest percentage of any state outside the Deep South. Democrats outnumber Republicans 2-1 in the state. Former President Donald Trump is deeply unpopular in Maryland. In 2020, Trump received just 32% of the vote. A Republican has not won a presidential election in the state since George H.W. Bush in 1988. The Associated Press declared Harris the winner at 8:00 p.m. EST.
