Republicans hoped that gubernatorial nominee Ellen Sauerbrey would provide the party with enough coattails to continue making gains in the Maryland House of Delegates.[2] However, Democrats, buoyed by large turnout and backlash to impeachment proceedings against Bill Clinton, picked up a net of six seats from Republicans.[3] It would be the first time the Democratic Party gained seats in the House of Delegates since 1978.[2]
