The 2000 Maine Democratic presidential primary took place on March 7, 2000, as one of 16 contests scheduled on Super Tuesday in the Democratic Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election, following the Washington primary the week before. The Maine primary, the last in the state until the 2020, was a closed primary, meaning that only registered Democrats could vote in this primary. The state awarded 33 delegates towards the 2000 Democratic National Convention, 23 of which were pledged delegates allocated based on the results of the primary.
Vice president Al Gore won the primary with 54% of the vote while Senator Bradley finished second with a result of 41%. Gore gained three more delegates than Bradley statewide, resulting in his win of 13 delegates over Bradley's 10 delegates. Lyndon LaRouche Jr. finished 4th with 0.32% of the vote.
