Md. Democratic Party Announces DNC Delegates, Alternates, State DNC Members

20 pledged to Clinton; 11 to Sanders


ANNAPOLIS (May 23, 2016)—The Maryland Democratic Party today announced the allocation of delegates and alternates for the Democratic National Convention this summer in Philadelphia. Delegates were allocated based on the statewide percentage of votes each candidate won in Maryland's primary, held April 26.

"Our delegates and alternates reflect the diversity and strength of our party and our state," said Maryland Democratic Party Chair Bruce Poole. "The primary election energized Democrats, and we are united in our commitment to fighting for opportunity for all Marylanders. We look forward to working with everyone—Secretary Clinton supporters and Senator Sanders supporters alike—to keep Maryland blue in 2016."

Maryland DNC members for the 2016-2020 term were elected during the Maryland Democratic Party's State Central Committee Meeting at Martin's West, on May 21. The newly-elected members will represent all Marylanders by ensuring that the concerns of our state are elevated within the national party.
