How much would a $2500 529 deduction affect my MD State income tax refund?

I understand that I can get a deduction, and in terms of Federal taxes a deduction means roughly 1/3 back on my refund, is it roughly the same in a state deduction?

You cannot deduct 529 plan contributions on a Federal return.

The MD state deduction is worth whatever your marginal state tax rate is.
