thinly disguised campaign rally

Maine Democratic Party     Hi John, On Friday, Donald Trump visited Maine for a thinly disguised campaign rally. It went exactly how you’d expect: Trump toured a facility creating swabs for COVID testing while refusing to wear any sort of personal protective equipment… which contaminated all t…

Protecting Maine voters from Trump

Maine Democratic Party     Hello John, Donald Trump is coming to Maine this Friday, and he’s bringing his lies about our elections with him. We need to show him that we won’t put up with it: sign up right now to work the voter hotline, or to monitor voting and vote-counting. Trump falsely clai…

Hiding in Washington

Maine Democratic Party     Hi John, By now you probably know that Donald Trump is coming to Maine on Friday to use our state as another photo-op backdrop. But where will our senior senator be as Trump spends the day flying in and out of an airport just miles from her home? Why, Susan Collins w…

Trump is visiting Maine on Friday

Maine Democratic Party     Hi John, Yesterday, Donald Trump announced he is bringing his traveling circus to Maine. We have the worst possible president at the worst possible time. If Trump is coming to my state, we aren’t going to sit back and let him use Maine as a backdrop to promote his ch…

Statement on George Floyd and ongoing protests in Maine and around the country

Maine Democratic Party     Hi John, It shouldn’t take capturing George Floyd’s horrific killing on film for us to speak out against the racist violence that people of color routinely experience. Now millions of Americans are taking to the streets and raising their voices to speak out against s…

a simple question

Maine Democratic Party     Hi John, Here's a simple question that Susan Collins has tied herself into knots trying to avoid answering: Will she be voting for Donald Trump? By our count, she has been asked the question seven times, and goes into hardcore dodge-mode every time. Why is it so hard…
