The secretary of state in Maine was the victim of a hoax call in which people claimed to be from the police and were trying to cause a large-scale response. The secretary of state barred Donald J. Trump from the state's ballot on Friday, a politically fraught decision that drew criticism from Republicans across the country. The state police said that a man claimed to have broken into a home in Manchester. The authorities said that Ms. Bellows was not at home at the time.
