But the policy has no oversight and allows people who have never lived in Maine, never paid taxes in Maine, and have no intention of living in Maine in the future to vote just because they said they want to.

These 10 Hidden Italian Restaurants In Maine Are Local Favorites For Cozy Fall Evenings

Pasta now gets served in a Maine dining room that once sold hardware. I love that swap. Nails and wrenches out, meatballs and chicken parm in. Another spot on this list sits inside a converted mill. Two others feature a fireplace inside. One even makes its own gelato, which feels like a smart move after a big plate of rigatoni.
