Marylanders will vote for governor, new state senators and delegates, U.S. Senator, and U.S. Representatives, and other offices in the upcoming general election.
Learn about the candidates
The Maryland Catholic Conference surveyed all primary and general election candidates for Maryland Governor, General Assembly, U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives.
The survey consisted of five to six questions, six for U.S. Congress, five for state (“agree” or “disagree”) and an invitation to provide a short statement. Candidates were provided multiple opportunities to respond for the primary and general election.
If a candidate in your district did not respond, consider letting the candidate know the survey matters to you. Go to mdcatholic.org/election-surveys/ to confirm your congressional and state voting districts and then review the responses from candidates in your districts. In the Diocese of Wilmington, the Eastern Shore of Maryland encompasses U.S. District 1 and State Districts 34 through 38.
