The presidential candidate who received only one vote from Maine in one election was Andrew Jackson in 1828. That was the only time that Maine split its electoral votes between two candidates in one election.

Ironically, Maine is one of only two states that does NOT use the winner-takes-all system of electoral voting; they use the congressional district system, by which only two votes are determined by the statewide popular vote, and each additional vote is determined by the popular vote in each congressional district. The entire time Maine has been using that system, its congressional districts have never voted differently from each other.

The answer depends on the particular map you are referring to. Maine is one of two states that splits its electoral votes by Congressional districts. One vote goes to the winner of each of its two districts and two votes go the the overall state winner. In 2016, Trumps got one vote and Clinton three from Maine. A map would be probably by cross-hatched or specked in red and blue with a foot-note or some device to indicate the division of its votes.
