As you may be aware, Governor Hogan has ordered a full in-person election in November. If this makes you feel uncomfortable, here is a link to the MD State Board of Elections website to request a mail-in ballot for November:

Be aware, you will need a MD Driver's License or similar MD ID. It is a bit cumbersome with something like 10 or 11 steps, and it can be a bit confusing because it is also used for registering to vote. Stay with it, and you'll be fine.
