The 1984 United States presidential election in Maine took place on November 6, 1984. All 50 states and the District of Columbia, were part of the 1984 United States presidential election. Maine voters chose 4 electors to the Electoral College, which selected the President and Vice President of the United States.

Maine was won by incumbent United States President Ronald Reagan of California, who was running against former Vice President Walter Mondale of Minnesota. Reagan ran for a second time with former C.I.A. Director George H. W. Bush of Texas, and Mondale ran with Representative Geraldine Ferraro of New York, the first major female candidate for the Vice-Presidency.

The presidential election of 1984 was a very, very partisan election for Maine, with just under 100% of the electorate voting only either Democratic or Republican, and only four parties appearing on the ballot. Every county in Maine voted in majority for Reagan, a particularly strong turn out in what was at the time a typically conservative-leaning state.
