I don't know about the Marylanders shifting things, that might be part of it, but other parts like York County and Franklin which get a lot of Marylanders haven't seen a similar shift. Not sure what the ultimate reason is, but I think a switch to 'new tourism' seemed to shift things a bit, like how all the breweries and axe throwing places came into town and brought some younger more liberal people. That was at least my perspective but I grew up in Fairfield, not Gburg proper.

I don’t think it shifts the politics a ton because Marylanders that look to move to the country are generally right leaning. I lived in a border town that was 80% Marylanders. It was also 80% Republican. It draws people that don’t like cities and want to be away from it all. Those kinds of people are typically Republican.
