Caroline

2026 Gubernatorial Primary: every contest on the county's ballot.

On a contest that has its own page, a check mark is the result of the whole contest (won statewide, won the district, or retained), not this county's; a dot marks who has the most votes in Caroline. On a county office the check mark is this county's own result.

"Mail-In Ballot 1" and "Mail-In Ballot 2" are the State Board's two separate counts of mail-in ballots, as labelled in its results files.
