In Maine, Bush's best district was ME-02 (46.13%, 5.83% behind Kerry), while Kerry's best district was ME-01 (55.07%, 11.94% ahead of Bush). Surprising that those two districts always seem to be the two extremes

Actually, in the 90s, both Clinton and either George H.W. Bush or Bob Dole got a higher % of the vote in the first district than in the second, where Perot did best in both 1992 and 1996. But Clinton's margin over his Republican opponent (not the same is his percentage margin over his nearest opponent for the second district in 1992, mind you) was greater in District 2 than in District 1, for both the set of lines that existed at the time and the current set.
