The 1812 United States presidential election in Maryland took place on an unknown date in 1812. Voters chose eleven representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Early elections were quite different from modern ones. Voters voted for individual electors, who were pledged to vote for certain candidates. Often, which candidate an elector intended to support was unclear.A New Nation Votes https://elections.lib.tufts.edu/?f%5Boffice_id_ssim%5D%5B%5D=ON056 2021-12-22 elections.lib.tufts.edu Prior to the ratification of the 12th amendment, each elector did not distinguish between a vote cast for president and vice president, and simply cast two votes.Electoral College & Indecisive Elections US House of Representatives: History, Art & Archives https://history.house.gov/Institution/Origins-Development/Electoral-College/ 2021-12-22 history.house.gov en
Starting with the 1796 United States presidential election and ending with the 1824 United States presidential election, Maryland used an electoral district system to choose its electors, with each district electing a single elector. This method is similar to the way Nebraska and Maine choose their electors in modern elections.
