A spokesman for the Maryland Democratic Party said a delegate at the convention in Denver suffered a stroke.

Roxanne Taylor of Bowie suffered the stroke at a reception after Monday night’s speeches.

David Paulson, the state party spokesman, said it happened around 11 p.m. at Dixon’s Downtown Grill, where Comptroller Peter Franchot was hosting the event.

Paulson said Taylor was taken to a hospital where she was in critical but stable condition. He said two paramedics on bicycles responded quickly and gave Taylor a shot.

Taylor, 52, is a member of the Maryland Steering Committee for Barack Obama.
