The McCain List.
Maine
Obama 50%
McCain 46%
McCain-Palin have closed the gap remarkably in this New England state with, at one point in the summer, McCain being down nearly twenty percent. What is noteworthy about this is that Maine is one of only two states (the other being Nebraska) which apportions its electoral votes by congressional district. Maine's 1st district is liberal and includes Portland. But its 2nd district is more Republican-friendly. If McCain were to win the 2nd district (1 electoral vote) and New Hampshire, he would reach 270 electoral votes and win the Presidency without Colorado, Iowa, or New Mexico. And with only a statewide spread of four points, the 2nd district is well within our reach.
Competing in Maine and its 2nd district ought to be a top priority.
