On May 26, replacement gubernatorial primary election ballots were sent to voters in Washington County, plus voters in Anne Arundel, Cecil, Charles, Frederick, Harford, Howard, Montgomery and Queen Anne’s.

On May 28, replacement ballots will be mailed to voters in Baltimore City, Baltimore, Calvert, Caroline, Carroll, Dorchester, Garrett, Kent, Prince George’s, St. Mary’s, Somerset, Talbot, Wicomico, and Worcester counties.

The Maryland State Board of Elections has said all impacted voters will receive detailed instructions in their ballot packet. Voters affected by the ballot correction should dispose of their original ballot and vote the replacement ballot, said election officials.

Replacement ballots can be returned via drop box, at an early voting center during early voting in Maryland’s gubernatorial primary election, at a polling place on Election Day, at a local board of elections or postmarked no later than June 23, Maryland’s primary election day.

Local boards of elections are currently working to quarantine and organize the original set of ballots returned, while also preparing for the replacement ballots to begin returning, said state elections officials. Additionally, they are picking up ballots at drop boxes and receiving web delivery and in-person ballots in preparation for the first days of canvass, which the law requires to begin on June 1 and continue through the first day of early voting.
