Kentucky kicks off early in-person voting on Thursday as the nation sits just five days away from Election Day. Meanwhile, Maryland concludes its early-voting today at 8 p.m.

Here is everything you need know about early-voting in Kentucky and Maryland.

Voters will decide on several closely watched down-ballot races in addition to the presidential race. For a full list of competitive elections, see the latest Senate and House rankings.

The last time the state voted for a Republican senator was 1980, but former Gov. Larry Hogan tied Democrat challenger Angela Alsobrooks in a recent poll and has put forth a set of moderate policy proposals without raising the ire of former President Trump. Hogan, a Republican, has been a vocal critic of Trump. Alsobrooks is leaning on her experience as a county executive and prosecutor, and the state’s heavily blue tilt gives her an edge. 

The race is ranked Lean D in the Fox News Power Rankings.

Democrat April McClain Delaney faces Republican Neil Parrott in what should be safe territory for Democrats. The race is ranked Likely D in the Power Rankings.
