Good morning. Temperatures today will be in the low 40s to low 50s with partly cloudy skies throughout the state. Here's what we're talking about in Maine today.

A guide to voting in the March 2020 election in Maine

  • Maine will vote today to officially select major-party presidential nominees and decide on a people’s veto effort that would repeal a law scrapping nonmedical exemptions for school vaccine requirements.

    Here’s a guide to what’s on the ballot, how to vote and how the results will be counted.

    Bookmark our elections page now so you can follow the latest results tonight.
The presidential primaries
  • Five active Democrats are vying for the presidential nomination — Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, former Vice President Joe Biden, former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard. 

    You can read our full Democratic presidential primary voting guide here.
The vaccine referendum
  • Question 1 on Maine’s ballot would repeal a law passed last year by the Democratic-led Legislature that would eliminate nonmedical exemptions to school vaccine requirements. It was passed as a response to rising vaccine opt-out rates among Maine schoolchildren, but opponents got enough signatures to put the question on the March ballot.

    You can read our full guide to the vaccine referendum campaign and how the law would work here.
There are local races, too
Not sure where to vote? Here's how to find out.
