The U.S. Senate seats are split, with one Republican and one Independent. Culturally and economically, there are two Maines. Blue areas are primarily urban, coastal, and southern parts of the state, while red areas are mostly rural, inland, and northern. Maine is one of three states with ranked-choice voting for federal elections.
