AUGUSTA, — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says he’s going to win in Maine, not just the 2nd Congressional District.

Trump opened his remarks in his fifth visit to Maine this year by drawing attention to an FBI statement that it’s investigating whether there was classified information on new emails from Democrat Hillary Clinton. He also talked about trade deals that he says have hurt manufacturing jobs in Maine.

Trump visited Lisbon on Friday in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, where Trump is focusing his efforts in hopes of winning at least one of the state’s four electoral votes.

Maine is one of two states that split their electoral votes.

But Trump said he’s going to “win in Maine,” suggesting he’s going to win the entire state and all four electoral votes.
