Although Maine used ranked choice voting for all federal elections this year, the first-choice votes settled everything for all the races. Someone got over 50% in each race. There were two separate races for President, because each U.S. House district in Maine chooses its own presidential elector. In each of those races, the winner got over 50% with first-choice votes. Joe Biden carried the First District and President Donald Trump carried the Second District.

Also, in the U.S. Senate race, and each of the two U.S. House races, someone got over 50% with just first-choice votes.

It is somewhat ironic that the Maine Republican Party resisted ranked choice voting so fiercely, given this outcome.
