Maine is a very blue state. Trump may have made it more competitive, but he lost. Susan is a half liberal, which is why she wins. She’s good for procedural votes, but that is all.

I admit I have never been there, but just looking on the internet, they have a republican governor, a majority in the state senate, and in the 151 seat house, they are behind by 9 seats. Seems very winnable in 2018.

The Second District congressman in Maine is a Republican, who just got re-elected to his second term by 9 points.

The Second Congressional district was won by Trump, and gave him one electoral vote because Maine splits it’s electoral votes. Hillary won CD 1 and the statewide vote by 2.7% which netted her two more electoral votes in addition to the one electoral vote she received by winning CD 1.

The First Congressional district in southern Maine is 20% of the state but is more populated than the rest of the state of Maine. Portland in southern Maine is a liberal area.

We have both concealed and Constitution Carry here. Mikey Bloomberg’s “universal background checks” initiative failed last month.
