County Election Results

Unofficial Results Posted
Election results for the primary came in late last night. These results are unofficial, meaning there are more ballots to be counted and all results must be certified. Provisional ballots cast on election day will be counted on May 22nd, while the last batch of mail-ins will be tabulated on May 24th. The final verification of vote counts will also occur on May 24th, after which the election results will be official. Mail-in ballots still could affect close races. The following results are for St. Mary’s County, unless otherwise noted. I will list the top two vote getters for statewide races, and all results for local.
