Over 136,000 Mainers have already cast their ballots in the upcoming general election.
According to Maine Public, data from the Secretary of State's Office shows that most of these votes have come from registered Democrats.
Democrats have submitted roughly 52% of ballots, compared to just 20% from Republicans and unenrolled voters, commonly referred to as independents.

No-excuse absentee voting and early in-person voting are available to Mainers through Oct. 29.
Absentee ballots may be requested online here, but your local town hall must receive completed ballots by 8 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 3.
Maine voters may also request an absentee ballot in person with a paper application.
Completed absentee ballots must be returned to your local town hall. Most municipalities have a secure drop box outside the building where voters can deposit their ballots.
