Most Mainers also hate tourists so that's not gonna help.

I think if I were to rate the things Mainers hate it'd go

  1. Mosquitos
  2. Tourists
  3. People outside the state telling us how to run our shit.

True. However everyone in Maine hates tourists until they are gone. I recall businesses going under in droves due to Covid (Canadian border closures, less American tourists due to mandates etc.). Mainers seemed to love tourists then, when it hit them where it hurts, their wallets.
