If you had to pick one (or a couple) Maine-centric things that represented each letter of the alphabet, what would you choose? Let’s do it!
How it works: For each letter, we count comment replies on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as official votes. If a user comments with more than one response, we count the first one listed. New letters will appear weekdays around 10am on our social platforms. Have fun with it!
