Wouldn't be surprised if she topped 70% here.

DC Metro really dislikes Trump.

Hardly "news", to be perfectly honest. He would carry the eastern shore beautifully but Baltimore and DC would clobber him.

The poll was also asking about primary choices (Senate/Presidential), which is relevant for later this month.

I think Maryland will certainly be one of the most Democratic states (at least in the top 5), but I don't see how 70% is possible even with squeezing more votes of the strongholds in the state. Even if she got 80% in Montgomery County and pushed above 90% in Prince George's and Baltimore City (certainly within the realm of possibility), I don't think that would be enough even with high turnout. If I had to guess, I think the Republican floor in Maryland is somewhere around 31-32%.

Roughly 62-35. That's about what Obama did in Maryland in 2012.

If I am a Republican I do not want Trump as the nominee. He's behind earlier and bigger than Romney at the same point in 2012.
