The1824 United States presidential election in Maryland took place between October 26 and December 2, 1824, as part of the1824 United States presidential election. Voters chose 11 representatives, or electors to theElectoral College, who voted forPresident andVice President.
During this election, theDemocratic-Republican Party was the only major national party, and four different candidates from this party sought the Presidency. AlthoughMaryland voted forJohn Quincy Adams overAndrew Jackson,William H. Crawford andHenry Clay, only three electoral votes were assigned to Adams, while Jackson received seven and Crawford received one. Adams won Maryland by a very narrow margin of 0.32%.
Starting with the1796 United States presidential election and ending with this election, Maryland used an electoral district system to choose its electors, with each district electing a single elector. This is similar to the wayNebraska andMaine choose their electors in modern elections.
