Susan collins may’ve been born in Northern Maine, but she speaks with a ct or western mass accent. Riddle me that!
Troy Jackson is from Allagash! He was amazing at the rally too!
I am going to vote for Troy Jackson....but Pingree probably more money than all of the candidates added together
I think Hannah has it in her to be a good governor, and I'm very glad she's involved with state government one way or another. She hasn't been very visible to the public since she left the state senate. But I think Troy has the best chance of winning. Plus he speaks to my heart.
He’s a blue dot in a red county but he knows what’s happening and isn’t afraid to talk about it. Met him at a rally in Bridgton, and he’s spot on with the real people and their needs.
The thing is, the republicans finally pulled the trigger on plans that are directly harming red states now. Before they talked about immigrants and border cities most people in deep red areas will never see or encounter directly, but now they’re losing their jobs, Medicare, and grants so they’re mad
Aroostook Country could care less… it’s the Alabama of the state. They just want to have guns and own the libs. They will all be dead and gone before they have a clue. Thankfully there’s a larger contingency of thinking people outside of Norther Maine.
👍
This whole “libs don’t own guns” thing is so weird. Every Democrat I know owns guns. Most don’t even want them illegal, they just want people who are mentally ill and may be suicidal (or homicidal) to not get them, but more than that, they want free accessible mental healthcare!
They want their guns and to own the libs. I’m pretty sure 75% of the libs up here own guns. But we are also much less likely to hoard them because the dems are gonna take them away. After the mass shooting in Lewiston a few years ago you think there would be some reforms, but no.
The thing is, if they’re so concerned about the second amendment, fine, let’s not start there. Let’s start with things like education in conflict resolution and weapons safety with free access to mental health services, data says that would work better anyway, but the GOP wants us sick and dying.
That’s why they continue offering nothing but thoughts and prayers. Either what’s happening in the government right now, I am glad we do have the 2nd amendment! Something needs to be done about the health and poverty crises that the violence is a symptom of but Republicans simply don’t care about us
LOL "Alabama of the state"! Love it!
jackson's campaign ad is MASTERFUL. i'm on the opposite coast, but my state also has big logging and fishing traditions. shit, i'd vote for him if he were running here! (fortunately, we already have a good gov. in bob ferguson). jacksonformaine.com
