Maryland poll: Obama 60% to 37%!
Barack Obama is dominant in Maryland’s presidential race. The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state finds the Democrat ahead of John McCain by a 60% to 37% margin.

This is the biggest lead the Democrat has held in the state this year. Last month, Obama led 53% to 41%. Maryland has cast its ten electoral votes for Democratic candidates in the last four elections.

This month, Obama leads 57% to 38% among unaffiliated voters in the Old Line State. He also leads McCain 52% to 36% among men and 58% to 37% among women (demographic crosstabs are available for Premium Members). Learn More..

Obama is viewed favorably by 67% of Maryland voters and unfavorably by 32%. McCain’s numbers are less flattering, with 48% who view him favorably and 51% who view him unfavorably.

1. I don't believe he airs any ads in Md.
And he is still way ahead.

8. I've seen a lot of Obama ads on the DC stations that cover the MD suburbs of DC (where I live)
Maybe they are aimed more at the northern VA suburbs of DC, but they do end up being shown in MD and DC, too.

3. Clearly an outlier, McSame should compete in Maryland
It could really put him over the top.

7. Great numbers
I know Maryland is a blue state, but it still is great that he has increased his numbers here to such a fantastic margin.

10. Maryland is so blue...
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 10:30 PM by galactical
No doubt that it's going Obama. I was driving up to silver spring the other day and house after house had Obama signs. Everyday, commuting to work, i see about a dozen Obama stickers on the cars i pass by, compared to the 4 or 5 I've seen for McCain since April. What i hope is some of our enthusiasm pushes into VA when they commute home from work.
