Meet the candidates for Maryland’s statewide offices!

This election, LWVMD is taking a new approach to candidate forums. Every candidate for Governor, Attorney General, and Comptroller has been invited to participate in an individual 30-minute interview.

Each candidate receives the same questions and the same amount of time to respond. Interviews will be recorded and shared online through Election Day so voters can hear directly from the candidates.

Scroll to see the full slate of candidates and learn more about the interviews.
