The Rev. Franklin Graham — son of legendary evangelist Billy Graham — jetted to Maine this week to urge residents of The Pine Tree State to go to the polls in November and "vote for Biblical values."
To the cheers and applause of some 1,500, Graham made the heartfelt pitch during a spirited prayer rally Tuesday in Augusta, The Portland Press Herald reported.
The appearance was the 36th leg in Graham's ambitious "Decision America Tour 2016" initiative, in which he is hitting all 50 states "to challenge believers to take a stand and take action."
Graham is not endorsing any candidate in the current election, instead asking Americans to pray because "this nation is in serious trouble."
He will appear in Vermont on Wednesday and New York on Thursday. Next week, he's scheduled to travel to Boston, Mass; Providence, Rhode Island; and Hartford, Connecticut.
