Just as we saw in neighboring Virginia, voters in Maryland are flocking to the polls on the first day of early voting to cast their ballots in the 2020 election. If you’re a Maryland resident and did not vote by mail like Governor Larry Hogan (his candidate of choice? Ronald Reagan), there’s still time left. Polling sites are open daily from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. for early voting until Monday, November 2 — even on the weekends. Check out some of the long lines at voting centers:
