Maryland swung Democratic again

[Timothy87]

My home state voted exactly how I thought it would. I predicted we'd be the second best state for Hillary after Hawaii. I wasn't expecting the massive swing in CA.

I knew that Hillary would get a huge boost in the high income Montgomery/Howard corridor, and that Anne Arundel would narrowly flip to her due to the upper middle class/federal workforce impact.

I also predicted Frederick and Kent would narrowly stay in the Republican column due to the rural, exurban and mostly white populations there.

It was pretty obvious the small rural counties would swing heavily to Trump.  If you're wondering what's so different about Talbot, it's home to a lot of retired federal workers, congressmen, etc (Chris Shays lives there for example).

The only surprise to me was the outlying drop in turnout in Baltimore City. They weren't enthused for Clinton.
