Maine Get-Out-The-Vote Maps

FairVote2020 has developed an interactive map showing turnout by towns and cities for the 2000 presidential election.

Other maps show results by town in head-to-head Bush-Gore and Bush-Kerry contests. Political data is available for civil divisions, encompassing over 99% of Maine's population. Blank areas on the map have no population or missing data.

Additional maps include census data on poverty, housing and income. Change maps by clicking the drop-down menu under "Compare Maps" on the left.
