Maine 2024 live election results: Harris is projected winner
ABC News reports the Vice President Kamala Harris is the projected winner in Maine.
Harris won three of the state's electoral votes, with Trump winning one for Maine's 2nd Congressional District.
State significance
Maine last cast all four of its Electoral College votes for a Republican presidential candidate in 1988, choosing George H. W. Bush over Democrat Michael Dukakis. However, in both 2016 and 2020, former President Donald Trump received one of the state's four electoral college votes for winning in the state's 1st Congressional District. (Maine, unlike most states, awards two votes to the statewide winner and one vote for each congressional district won.)
Down ballot, the 2nd Congressional District also plays host to one of the nation's closest congressional races, which pits incumbent Democratic Rep. Jared Golden against Republican state Rep. Austin Theriault.
Independent Sen. Angus King also ran for reelection this year and is favored to prevail.
Counties are colored red or blue when the % expected vote reporting reaches a set threshold. This threshold varies by state and is based on patterns of past vote reporting and expectations about how the vote will report this year.
