How does Maryland's primary work?
Maryland uses a closed primary: only voters registered with a party may vote in that party's primary, while unaffiliated voters are limited to nonpartisan contests such as school board races. The 2026 primary is June 23, with early voting from June 11 through June 18; there is no runoff, and the nomination goes to the candidate with the most votes.
Why is the 2026 Maryland Governor race important?
Maryland's governorship is the state's top executive office, and 2026 is the first statewide test for Democratic Governor Wes Moore since his 2022 win. The June 23 primary sets the field, and the race anchors a ballot that also decides attorney general, comptroller, every US House seat and the full General Assembly.
