The 2000 Maryland Senate Primary
https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/state.php?year=2000&off=3&elect=2&fips=24&f=0Rappaport - 23%
Sobhani - 17%
Pierpont - 17%
Ficker - 15%
Timmerman - 10%
Wayman - 9%
Stafford - 6%
Greyber - 3%
Ficker is best known as being a heckler at Washington Bullets games.
So anyways, four candidates were from Montgomery County (Ficker, Greyber, Sobhani and Timmermann)
Pierpont is from Baltimore County.
Rappaport and Stafford are from Howard County.
Wayman is from Carroll County.
Montgomery County percentages
Sobhani - 31%
Ficker - 25%
Timmerman - 18%
Greyber - 9%
Rappaport - 8%
Pierpont - 4%
Stafford - 3%
Wayman - 3%
So the four Montgomery county candidates finished in the top 4.
Pierpont won Baltimore County with 46%.
Rappaport won Howard County with 53%, Stafford recieved 16% for a second place finish.
Wayman won Carroll County with 42%.
So in the home counties of all the candidates, an out of county candidate didn't finish in front of a home county candidate in any of those 4 counties.
And every candidate's best county is their home county.
And if you take out those four counties, then Rappaport wins the rest of the state with 24%
