Maryland Exits

62 percent of the electorate in Maryland was female, and women went for Obama 59–38. Obama won Latinos 53–47. He won non-college Democrats 63–33 and college Democrats 62–36. In an inversion of the usual trajectory, Clinton did better among wealthier Democrats than among people of more modest means. People who make over $200,000 a year went for Clinton, with every less prosperous slice going for Obama. He won Protestants and he won Catholics. He won urban voters and suburban voters and rural voters.
