Maryland was won by Governor Bill Clinton (D-Arkansas) with 49.80%of the popular vote over incumbent President George H. W. Bush (R-Texas) with 35.62%. Businessman Ross Perot (I-Texas) finished in third, with 14.18% of the popular vote.[1] Clinton ultimately won the national vote, defeating incumbent President Bush.[2] Maryland would be one of only three states, along with Washington DC, where if Bush’s and Perot’s vote had been combined, Clinton would still come out on top (albeit by an incredibly slim margin of 63 votes). The other two states are New York and Arkansas.
