Governor Wes Moore leads the hapless Dan Cox by 64%-32%&#8211;about the same as four years ago but with more votes to be counted that will likely extend the Governor&#8217;s lead. Comptroller Brooke Lierman and Attorney General Anthony Brown each lead their Republican opponents by 68%-32%. Both represent even greater victories than the landslides they achieved in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andy Harris&#8217;s lead continues to shrink in the First District, but he will certainly keep his seat this year. Currently, he leads Dan Schwartz by 53%-46%. In 2022, Harris beat Heather Mizeur by 54%-43% in the final results. The passage of Question 3 will allow Democrats to realign the boundaries in a  manner favorable to their candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the latest local changes, Democrats have picked up one seat apiece on the Orphans&#8217; Courts of St. Mary&#8217;s and Wicomico. The latter gives them the majority on that three-member body. Mail ballots continue to arrive and aid the Democrats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The state legislative and local election results charts are below:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.46.12-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"249\" height=\"1011\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.46.12-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.46.12-AM.png 249w, https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.46.12-AM-74x300.png 74w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 249px) 100vw, 249px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.32.11-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"942\" height=\"578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.32.11-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16183\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.32.11-AM.png 942w, https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.32.11-AM-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/www.theseventhstate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-2026-11-08-at-11.32.11-AM-768x471.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 942px) 100vw, 942px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democrats continue to extend their momentous leads in all statewide contests.
