Unlike the similar action in Colorado, this could actually take electoral votes away from Trump. Trump was never going to win in Colorado, but Maine divides it's 4 electoral votes (somewhat) proportionally. In 2016 and 2020, Maine gave 1 vote to Trump. It would have to be a really tight race for that to matter but it might just matter.
