2088 United States presidential election in Maryland



The 2088 United States presidential election in Maryland was held on Tuesday, November 2, 2088, as part of the 2088 United States presidential election. The Green ticket of Annie Brown and Sara Ribo won the state with 67.78% of the vote and a 48.57% margin of victory. Brown became the first presidential candidate since 1956 to carry all of Maryland's counties and county-equivalents.

Analysis
Maryland was 9% more Green than the national average in 2088, making it the 13th strongest state for the Greens in this election. Despite being one of the top 10 wealthiest states in the United States in the 2080s, Maryland only gave Democrat Natalia Vernon 9.83% of the vote, contrary to the national pattern of Democrats performing strongly in wealthy, suburban areas. The likely culprit was the Green's messaging on climate change, which had hit the coastal state of Maryland fairly hard.

Republican Ammon Harrison performed most strongly in the rural Appalachian west of Maryland, which had traditionally been the most reliably Republican part of the state. Despite this, Garrett County, which had given the Republican Party its vote in every election since 1912 and had not once supported a Democrat, flipped to the Green Party in this election with Annie Brown receiving 50% of the vote to Ammon Harrison's 45% there.
