Trump’s victory in Maine comes on the heels of Secretary of State Shenna Bellows withdrawing her ruling to disqualify Trump from the ballot.
Democrat Secretary Of State Withdraws Trump Ballot Ban Following Supreme Court Ruling
The Hill noted:
Former President Trump won Maine’s GOP primary Tuesday, according to a projection from Decision Desk HQ, boosting his Super Tuesday dominance.
Trump appeared on the ballot in Maine after an effort from Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) to prevent him from participating in the primary. Trump appealed the decision to a state court, which ruled Trump could stay on the ballot until the Supreme Court resolves a similar case from Colorado.
Bellows appealed the ruling and, in late January, the Maine Supreme Judicial Court upheld a lower judge’s order that required Bellows to wait for the Supreme Court’s Colorado decision.
Trump also secured victory in Arkansas.

Per CNN:
Donald Trump has swept to victory in tonight’s Republican primaries in Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Maine, Arkansas and Texas, CNN projects. With polls still open in a few states, the former president is hoping to establish a commanding lead in the delegate count and vanquish his only opponent, Nikki Haley.
On the Democratic side: President Joe Biden isn’t facing any major competition, and has won all the Democratic contests so far, CNN projects, as he gears up for a likely rematch with Trump in November.
The only state Haley has been competitive is Vermont, which is an open primary state.

So the liberal media and Fox News and all of the other fake news are going to focus on the fact that Nikki Haley might possibly take Vermont but the only reason she could take Vermont is because it’s a freaking open primary so she’s getting democrat votes that she would never get…

Vote 411 states:
Vermont is an “open primary” state. You can choose the party’s ballot you wish to vote. This decision does not register you with that party and it is a private decision.
In a primary election if candidates tie there will be a primary runoff election scheduled for a few weeks after the primary election date. The runoff election will have the top two candidates with the most votes to ensure that one of them receives the majority of the voters.
At the time of writing, Trump leads Haley in Vermont by a vote of 48.5% to 47%.
