Interesting times for the state of Maine, if nowhere else.

While outgoing governor LePage mouths off about leaving Maine permanently
for Florida,
Maine's governor-elect is its first woman governor,
and she is a Democrat replacing LePage the Republican.

Over in Maine's second congressional district --
the one to the north, the one that covers a huge amount of land --
the race for Representative, between incumbent Poliquin and challenger Goldin,
was too close to call;
which also means, neither one got 50% of the votes.

By newly-passed state law, that means a default to
a choice rating built into the election ballots.
