ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - It's the last day for early voting in Maryland.

Thursday is the last day voters in the state can cast their ballots ahead of Election Day. Early voting polls are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Any person who is eligible to register to vote can vote early.

Registered Democrats outnumber Republicans 2-1 in Maryland. There are about 2.1 million registered Democrats and 1 million Republicans. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is expected to win easily in the state.

Republican Gov. Larry Hogan has said he won't be voting for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Hogan first said in February that he didn't support Trump and in June confirmed that he wouldn't vote for him. Hogan is just the second elected Republican governor in the past half-century in Maryland.
