105. Sarbanes (D, MD) is probably against
But dunno about Mikulski.

So that should be at least one vote from Maryland.

http://www.washblade.com/2003/11-21/news/localnews/mostlymum.cfm

"Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski (D-Md.), who has a 100 percent pro-gay record in the 107th session of Congress, has declined to say where she stands. Lawrence Jacobs, board co-chair of Free State Justice, Maryland’s largest gay civil rights organization, said that he isn’t sure Mikulski’s support could be taken for granted since she voted for DOMA in 1996.

Her counterpart, Sen. Paul S. Sarbanes (D-Md.), who also scored a 100 percent pro-gay voting record, released a statement to the Blade that he is “opposed to proposed Constitutional smendments when a statutory approach would adequately serve the interests being advanced.”"
