AUGUSTA – Maine Republican Party Chair, Dr. Demi Kouzounas, issued the following statement following Democrats filing Articles of Impeachment:

"First Democrats promised 'collusion,' but there was none. After 'quid pro quo' failed, their focus groups told them to try 'bribery,' but there was none," said MEGOP Chairwoman Dr. Demi Kouzounas. "Nancy Pelosi, Jared Golden, and D.C. Democrats can invent whatever false charges they want, but the American people see this for what it is: yet another partisan attempt to overthrow a duly-elected President and rob voters of the chance to re-elect him in 2020."

"As the House Democrats approach their formal vote on impeaching the President, I'd like to remind Jared Golden that he represents a district that voted for President Trump by 10 points. Before he gets wrapped up in D.C. drama, I hope he remembers that he represents Maine's Second District, not the interests of the most-extreme in his party."
