New 60-second ad from Troy Jackson campaign, pure economic populism: Tribute to people who "work 80 hours a week like I did," pledge to cut their taxes and protect their benefits.

9/29 Mainer-slash-historian Heather Cox Richardson on the best way Mainers can influence the Senate election, speaking at a campaign event for Troy Jackson at USM in Portland Monday evening #maine #MEpolitics

Hard to imagine a more authentic voice than @TroyJackson207 to read this classic. #MESenate

Portland Press Herald Editorial Board: "It is extremely disappointing to watch Collins and members of her staff move to immediately discredit a thorough and fair piece of investigative journalism on political and personal grounds." https://t.co/WhPCZ0r7tQ

[Luke Martin @Luke_W_Martin]

If @TroyJackson207 wins seniors by 5, he will easily win the state. This is the second poll this week (@nytimes the first) showing Collins as more competitive with younger voters than is realistically possible, and it’s buoying her overall vote. #MESenate

Congratulations to the nurses of Central Maine Medical Center, who voted overwhelmingly tonight to form a union — with 91% voting yes!

CMMC nurses stood together, stood up to Prime Healthcare, and refused to back down from fighting for themselves and their patients.

An incredible victory and a powerful reminder: we are always stronger together.

Thank you, nurses. Solidarity forever. ✊❤️

[Troy Jackson @TroyJackson207]

My message to Prime, who illegally fired 15 hardworking nurses and suspended five more at Central Maine Medical Center. Prime doesn't seem to give a damn about Maine nurses or the Mainers who depend on them. This has to stop.

To all the CMMC nurses who vote tomorrow on whether to unionize, know I’ll always have your back. Vote yes to have power. Vote yes to have a union.

When I practiced law, I had witnesses whose credibility left much to be desired.

But here, we have statements Kao made under oath that are substantiated by documents and emails.

So it’s more than just “trust the felon.” It’s “let’s see if his story is backed up by contemporaneous emails.”

[Joe Scarborough @ScarboroughNow]

Collins steered government contracts worth millions toward the company while her campaign was pumping them for donations. Sometimes they cut checks to Collins within 24 hours of the annual defense spending bill clearing a key Senate hurdle.
