Maryland Electoral Votes
How many electoral votes does Maryland have?


The electoral votes from Maryland and the other states are used to elect a President and Vice President every four years. Whichever Presidential candidate gets the majority of the electoral votes becomes the President.

Maryland is given one electoral vote for each Maryland congressional district, in addition to one electoral vote for each of the two Maryland Senators. In other words, the number of electoral votes Maryland has depends on how many Representatives Maryland has in Washington, D.C.

The number of Senators Maryland has does not change, but the number of Maryland congressional districts is based on the last census.


Like every other state, Maryland has 2 Senators. Furthermore, Maryland currently has 8 congressional districts. Thus, Maryland has a total of 10 Representatives in Washington, D.C.

Therefore, the answer to the question "How many electoral votes does Maryland have?" is 10.
