Nope, Maine was also a anti-slavery state since the start of it's joining into the Union in 1820. Maine joined the Union from the Compromise of 1820. Missouri wanted to become a slave state, but in order to keep a balance between slave to anti-slave states, Maine was then admitted to the Union as a free state(Missouri Compromise of 1820).
