More precisely:

“15% of the number of votes cast for candidates for that office at the last preceding election in the electoral district of the elected official.”

Number crunching:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Maine_gubernatorial_election

There were 676,819 votes in that election.

15% of that is 101,523 signatures needed.
