Mainers on Tuesday defeated a Republican effort to institute voter ID and limit absentee voting.
Question 1, one of two statewide ballot questions, would have required voters to show photo identification when casting a ballot and added new restrictions on absentee voting.
The referendum failed with 62.5% voting no to 37.5% voting yes as of 2:45 p.m. Wednesday when more than 95% of precincts had been reported.
