This is a BLUE state. It has traditionally voted Democratic in Presidential elections, but both this year’s Senate seat and the House seat in ME-2 are currently held by Republicans. These are crucial seats for Democrats to take in order to regain control of Congress.
Senate Race
This is a Purple US Senate race! Democrat candidate Troy Jackson has a good chance of beating the incumbent Republican, Susan Collins, and flipping the Senate. In Purple races like this, every vote for the Democrat matters! The whole country is looking to Maine to stop the MAGA madness and put the brakes on Trump.
VOTE Troy Jackson, Democrat, for US Senate!
If you are uncomfortable voting for Jackson for whatever reason, please consider swapping your vote with someone in a safe red or blue state where their vote for a Democrat will not change the outcome. Your swap partner can vote third party in that other state and deliver a “protest” vote on your behalf.
