Maine Democrats Seek New Hope in Senate Race Against Incumbent Collins
A Shift in Strategy
Maine Democrats are eager to move forward after the tumultuous campaign of Graham Platner, who has been marred by scandals. As they set their sights on unseating Republican incumbent Susan Collins, the party is rallying behind former Senate President Troy Jackson as the apparent front-runner.
