United States presidential election in Maine, 1976
Maine narrowly voted for Incumbent Republican president Gerald R. Ford over his Democratic opponent, Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter. Ford took 48.91% of the vote to Carters 48.07%, a victory margin of .84%. The anti-war former Democratic senator from Minnesota, Eugene McCarthy, received 2.21% of the vote in Maine, which possibly helped Ford carry the state, as he most likely siphoned more votes from Carter than Ford.
