Early voting coming to a close in Maryland

ANNAPOLIS, Md. —Maryland's primary is Tuesday, and if you want to avoid long lines at the polling stations day, time is running out. Thursday is the last day for early voting.

State elections administrators said early voting has been going quite well so far.

"It's convenient for the voters and it really helps on up for Election Day because it takes some of the pressure off of the polling places on Election Day," said Linda Lamone, administrator of elections for the state of Maryland.

It's been a good turnout for early voting in Maryland. According to state elections officials, more than 180,000 voters have cast their ballots so far, with 37,000 on the first day, which is double the number from the last election.

I voted early as a Democrat. I'm glad that there was the "no confidence" voting option on the ballot for President. I wish that there had been one for the other offices.

You bragging about being a democrat 9:18? I would hide if I were you.

I know a few democrats who cast an anti Clinton vote for Sanders. They plan to vote for Trump. I know of several couples in NY who on Tues did the same thing. So so many Sanders voters are just really anti Clinton votes and they will vote for Trump come November.

11:25 that's exactly what I did. Voted for Sanders as an anti Clinton vote & voted against Ireton as an anti vote against him. Come Nov. will vote for Trump & Harris!
