    Polls close at 8:00 PM on election day (21-A M.R.S. § 626(2)); all of Maine is on Eastern time, so polls close at 8:00 PM EST = 01:00 UTC on 4 Nov. Absentee ballots count only if delivered to the municipal clerk before the polls close (§ 755), so no ballots arrive after election day. Ballots are counted at each voting place (hand-count towns included) and the warden declares the results there; the Secretary of State does not publish an election-night count (its RCV explainer: results are not shared until certified), so election-night figures are the municipalities' first-choice totals as compiled by the press. The window closes at 12:00 PM EST on 4 Nov: an estimate of when the municipal count is substantially complete, not a published time. For ranked-choice contests, wardens report first-choice votes only (§ 711).

    Municipal returns, then the ranked-choice central count. Each municipal clerk "shall file an attested copy of the election return with the Secretary of State within 2 business days after election day" — by 5:00 PM EST on Thursday 5 Nov 2026 (21-A M.R.S. § 711(3)). General elections for U.S. Senator and U.S. Representative are "determined by ranked-choice voting" when 3 or more candidates, or 2 plus a declared write-in candidate, qualify (§ 1(27-C)(B)); on the SoS 2026 General Election candidate list and declared write-in list (25 Aug 2026) that condition is met for U.S. Senate and for District 2, but District 1 has two listed candidates and no declared write-in, so it is decided by plurality (§ 723(2)). If no candidate has more than 50% of first choices, the SoS collects the ballots and memory devices by courier and runs the rounds centrally in Augusta (§ 723-A(2); SoS RCV tabulation explainer: "a statewide RCV tabulation can take 1.5 to 2 weeks, approximately"), and shares the unofficial rounds. Precedent: District 2's ranked-choice count was run on 16 Nov 2022 (8 days after polling day) and on 15 Nov 2024 (10 days after) (SoS 2022 and 2024 results pages). The window runs from 5:00 PM EST on 5 Nov to the end of 17 Nov 2026 EST (two weeks after polling day). If every contest is won on first choices, no ranked-choice count is run.

    State tabulation: "Within 20 days after an election, the Secretary of State shall tabulate the election returns and submit a certified copy of the tabulation to the Governor. The tabulation ... is considered final as of the date the certified copy is submitted to the Governor, except for any contests in which a recount is pending" (21-A M.R.S. § 722) — by Monday 23 Nov 2026; the window closes at the end of that day, Eastern time. The window opens on 13 Nov 2026, an estimate based on the 2024 District 2 ranked-choice count (15 Nov 2024) being posted as "Certified results reported to the Governor". The date the 2022 tabulation was submitted to the Governor could not be confirmed on the SoS site. Recount: a candidate other than the apparent winner must request one "within 5 business days after the election" (by Tue 10 Nov 2026); in a ranked-choice contest only a candidate in the top 3 at the end of the penultimate round may request one; a candidate who becomes the loser in the official tabulation has 3 business days after the Governor receives it; no deposit is required when the margin is 1% or less of the votes cast or not more than 1,000 votes, whichever is less (§ 737-A, (1-A)). Disputed ballots in a U.S. Senate or House race go to that chamber under its own rules (§ 737-A(10)). A recount can move the final result past the window: in 2024 the District 2 recount ran 2-4 Dec 2024 (Maine Public, 4 Dec 2024) and the SoS posted corrected final tabulations dated 5-6 Dec 2024. The window is held open to the end of Mon 7 Dec 2026, Eastern time, to err late: in 2024 a District 2 recount ran 2–4 Dec and corrected final files are dated 5–6 Dec 2024, after that year's 20-day deadline.

    Municipal returns. Each municipal clerk "shall file an attested copy of the election return with the Secretary of State within 2 business days after election day"; if it has not arrived by 5 p.m. on the 2nd business day the SoS may send a courier (21-A M.R.S. § 711(3)) — by 5:00 PM EST on Thursday 5 Nov 2026. The window runs from 9:00 AM EST on 4 Nov (an estimate of when returns start arriving) to that deadline. The SoS does not publish these returns before certification (SoS RCV tabulation explainer).

    The Secretary of State tabulates the returns and submits a certified copy to the Governor "Within 20 days after an election" (21-A M.R.S. § 722) — by Monday 23 Nov 2026. Governor is decided by plurality (§ 723(2)): ranked-choice voting in general elections covers only U.S. Senator, U.S. Representative and presidential electors (§ 1(27-C)(B), (D)), and the SoS says RCV is used in general elections "for federal offices only". The formal declaration is by the Legislature: the Secretary of State "shall, on the first Wednesday after the first Tuesday of January then next, lay the lists ... before the Senate and House of Representatives", who "shall determine the number of votes duly cast for the office of Governor, and in case of a choice by plurality ... declare and publish the same"; a tie between the top two is decided by the two houses in joint session (Constitution of Maine, Art. V, Pt. 1, § 3). That is Wednesday 6 Jan 2027, so the window closes at the end of that day, Eastern time. The window opens on 13 Nov 2026 (estimate). The date the 2022 tabulation was submitted to the Governor could not be confirmed on the SoS site. Recount requests are due within 5 business days after the election (by Tue 10 Nov 2026); no deposit when the margin is 1% or less or not more than 1,000 votes, whichever is less (§ 737-A, (1-A)).
