Polls close in Maine’s presidential primary at 8 p.m. Eastern time.
Party members could only vote in their own party’s primary, but unaffiliated voters could choose one to participate in.
In many elections, including the presidential primaries, Maine uses a “ranked-choice voting” process in which voters may rank candidates in order of preference.
Maine Republican leaders have said they will only consider the first round of voting when allocating their delegates.
The state primary, which will include races for state and congressional offices, will be held on June 11.
