The 2024 Maine Democratic presidential primary will take place on March 5, 2024, as part of the Democratic Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. 32 delegates to the Democratic National Convention will be allocated to presidential candidates.[1] The contest will be held on Super Tuesday alongside primaries in 14 other states and territories. This will be a semi-closed primary where party members may only vote in their respective party's primary, but unenrolled voters may choose a party's primary to participate in. This change in law from Maine's previous closed primary went into effect on May 14, 2022, without Gov. Janet Mills' signature.[2]
