Maine: How to Vote, Where to Vote and What’s on the Ballot

Maine offers same-day voter registration, so there’s still time to cast a ballot in person today.

How to vote

Not sure if you’re registered to vote? You can check here. If you’re not registered, don’t worry. The secretary of state’s website says, “There is no cutoff date for registering to vote in person at your town office or city hall.”

The deadline to apply for an absentee ballot, however, was last week. You can go here to request an absentee ballot for future elections.

To check the status of your absentee ballot, visit this page.

Where to vote

This site will help you find your voting place.

What’s on the ballot

Republicans in Maine’s Second Congressional District will pick a nominee to run against Representative Jared Golden, a Democrat, in November. Depending on where you live, you may also pick a nominee for a state legislative or local office.
