Yes, the Compromise of 1850 admitted Maine as a free state. However, it's important to note that Maine was already a state, having been admitted to the Union in 1820 as part of the Missouri Compromise. The Compromise of 1850 primarily addressed the status of territories acquired during the Mexican-American War and aimed to balance the interests of free and slave states.
