Maine Votes for WiIlkie
By Slim 5000 Margin

PORTLAND, Me, Nov. 6 (P.-
Maine added to Wendell WILKES
electoral vote total by five today
after the tightest top-of- the-ticket
contest in the Down East" area
since Charles Evans Hughes won the
State from President Wilson In 1915.
An unofficial tabulation of 626 pre-
eincts out of 629 gave Mr.. Roosevelt,
TAT; Mr. Willkie, 1882.
Mr.. WILKES slim plurality in a
total of $4,000 votes, which sur
passed by 1000 the previous high
ballot mark in the State, compared
strikingly with Republican Gov
Elect Sumner Sewalls 10000 major
ity in the early State election in
October.
-Four years ago Mr.. Roosevelt ran
$4,000 votes behind Republican ALT
M. Landon. In 1882, the President
lost the State to Herbert Hoover by
$1,000. Only once since the Re-
publican party was founded has
Maine wandered away from its
standard-in 1912, when the Bull
Moose split gave the State to Mr..
Wilson,

Republican Showing
In South Is Better
Than in 1896
Roosevelt Registers
At Least FL Margin
In Each of II Stotes
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Solid South's 124 electoral
votes were counted for President
Roosevelt today by majorities Of at
least two to one in each of the IL
States. but the Republicans show
ing was better than in 1886.
Unofficial returns from 12,102 of
1926 precincts in 10 States and
224 of 254 counties in Texas gave
the Democratic candidate 1921 $40
to 754,076 for Wendell L. Willkie.
These returns-growing slowly in
the second day tabulations-indi-
Gated clearly that Mr.. Willkie would
far outpoll Alfred M. Landon, who
received about 1000 four years ago
to Mr.. Roosevelt's 3,368,000. At this
stage it seemed likely that the total
vote would approximate the 4,165;-
600 of four years ago and if present
ratios are maintained the winners
beltwide majority would be about
3.5 to instead of more than to 1.
Mr.. WILKES total already had
passed Mr.. Landon's in Florida, the
Republican 1910 nominee having
102,063 with nearly 500 precincts
missing, while Mr. Landon polled
onyl 1928. Similarly, in Tennessee
Mr.. Willkie had 150,531 with more
than $50 precincts out against Mr..
Landon's total of 1866. In Texas
224 of 254 counties had given Mr..
Willkie 1855 while Mr.. Landon
received only 103,874 all told.
Democratic nominees for Gov
ernor, the Senate and House were
swept into Office except in the 5th
congressional district of Tennes-
see, once represented by Andrew
Jackson.
