@PollTracker2024 This island town has 29 people. Polls close at 8 unless all eligible voters have cast a ballot.

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

Ill paste a link here.

Also, please, go vote!

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter I can assure you you are wrong but that's ok, been in maine electoral politics for the last 9 years. I was Golden's cm last cycle. When they redistricted they started with counties, then divided one by town.

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter By the way. Its totally ok to say "oh I didnt realize that" and draw a new, slightly redder map, where you dont divide more than 1 subdivision. I'm sure its possible. The legislature passes these maps in a bipartisan manner as required by law. Repubs have a seat at the table.

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter Yes, the law (and interpretation by the legislature) says fewest. The current map has 1 divided subdivision. Does your map have as few or fewer? If not it is illegal.

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter The law says "fewest political subdivisions" no town or city in the current map is split. Only one county is split. 1 political subdivision is split currently. Your map is greater than 1 split political subdivision.

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter How many counties does it split? If more than 1 its illegal

[Dan Jenkins @JenkinsDan]

@Mapping_Buckeye @jocktag @SpecialPuppy1 @Redistricter This map violates the state law,which is to make a map that crosses the fewest political boundaries. 15 of 16 counties are wholly in one congressional district. Only kennebec county is split. Every town is wholly in one or the other.

@PollTracker2024 Nebraska can't be a Trifecta- best a unicameral legislature can offer is a bifecta

Standing shoulder to shoulder yesterday in Orono with UMaine Gradworkers Union and
UAW, fighting for a fair contract.

Organized labor isn't just a movement, it's the engine of progressive change.

Do you think it's wrong that Susan Collins hasn't had a town hall in 25 years?

Do you think Mainers deserve a Senator who will hold town halls in every county?

If your answer to either question was yes, join me on Monday night in Kennebunkport! RSVP:

Somerset County I can't wait to meet you this coming Wednesday at 6:30pm!

We're bringing our Courage Not Concern Town Hall Tour to Skowhegan and I'm looking forward to taking your questions. RSVP: https://t.co/GzVePpW3KN

I’m honored to have the support of so many Maine leaders and Congressmembers who hold the wealthy and big corporations to account. Together, we will beat Susan Collins and give Mainers the representation we deserve.

If I were Robert Plant and a lady in Mordor had decided to go with Gollum and the Evil One, leaving me to ramble on alone, I'd simply never tell anyone that piece of information.
