A general election was held in the U.S. state of Maryland on November 8, 2022. All of Maryland's executive officers were up for election as well as all of Maryland's eight seats in the United States House of Representatives, one of its U.S. senators, and the state legislature. Primaries were held on July 19, 2022. Polls were open from 7 AM to 8 PM EST.

The Democratic Party swept every statewide election, flipping the governorship and lieutenant governorship from the Republican Party, while maintaining supermajorities in the state's congressional delegation and the state legislature. As such, the party won full control of Maryland state government for the first time since 2014.
