PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - Maine residents faced a full slate of ballot measures beyond the closely watched gay marriage vote on Tuesday.
Residents casted votes on questions involving taxes, medical marijuana, schools and transportation funding.
Outside of gay marriage, the most contentious referendum was Question 4, which asked voters if they supported a measure to limit future increases in state and local government spending and taxes to the rate of inflation plus population growth. Voter approval would be required to exceed the limits.
