The gerrymandering in Maryland is so severe it may have passed in every district except the Eastern Shore one. Though MD-05 looks probably more likely to be against than for.

In Washington, the 3rd, 4th and 5th were obviously against, and the 1st, 2nd, 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th obviously for. The 8th seems tricky from a map.

I remember reading that in MD it failed by almost 60/40 in MD-01, by about 53/47 in MD-05 and barely failed in MD-04 (!).  It passed everywhere else and got >60% in MD-08.

Remarkably, Gay Marriage did better in Anne Arundel (Romney county) than Prince George's (89% Obama county)!

It really suggests that the way forward for gay marriage is outreach to business flavored conservatives...
