The 1932 United States presidential election in Maryland took place on November 8, 1932, as part of the 1932 United States presidential election. State voters chose eight representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Maryland was won by Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Speaker of the House John Nance Garner, with 61.50% of the popular vote, against incumbent President Herbert Hoover (R–California), running with Vice President Charles Curtis, with 36.04% of the popular vote.
Until 2020, this was the last time the Democratic candidate won over 65% of the vote in Howard County. As of 2020, this is also the last time the Republican candidate failed to win a single county on the Eastern Shore.
