As of 2010 census, Maine has the 6th lowest percentage (1.2%) black population in the U.S. The raw number - 15,707 "Black or African-American Alone" - is almost astonishing to consider.
It's not at all unrealistic to think that you could live in Maine & literally not know a single black person in your voting district.
