It's almost that time again. That time where there is a constant stream of political talk and political commercials. You simply can't avoid hearing about the upcoming presidential election.

Maine is especially unique in the presidential election system. The state is one of only two that is allowed to divide their two electoral college votes if they see fit, which was the case during the last presidential election cycle.

Based on results from the last several presidential elections, Presque Isle was named Maine's most conservative city. Voters in Presque Isle have been consistent in voting for Republican presidential candidates over the past couple decades, and there's little to suggest they won't do the same in 2024.

Caribou ranked as the second most conservative city in Maine. It was the only other place in Aroostook County that fit the "city" criteria Road Snacks used.
