footage is making the rounds on Facebook of a canvasser wearing a Stronger Maine shirt (a super PAC that supports Susan Collins) stealing a package yesterday

He looked over his shoulder, stepped back and took a good look (at the house next door, I'm guessing) and never realized what a Ring camera can capture? This guy needs some jail time to sharpen up his skills.

We’re just trying to find food, water, continue our education, basic rights that have become daily struggles. I watch what’s happening and cry, knowing we’ll never forget what we’ve lived through. If you can support us, even by sharing, it means more than you know. 🫂❤️ chuffed.org/project/help...

Fuck Susan Collins and especially fuck superPACs backing her, but if someone wants to steal off of doorsteps then looking like a campaigner - or even signing up and being one - is probably pretty good camouflage.

As someone who has run paid canvass programs, to me this is just an example of how they don't really work. This guy probably isn't a Republican! He just responded to an ad offering a good hourly and flexible scheduling! He's probably canvassed for Planned Parenthood or LCV before!

I don't think you know anything about the type of people who sign up for paid canvassing gigs. I would not read all that much into the tattoo.

This is a universal problem with paid canvassers (as a former canvass manager for Dems). These programs really will just take people off the street and give them a T-shirt and a clipboard and a 45 minute training

Funny, I saw this story on the extremely right wing what’s up with gas at Facebook page about a porch pirate I bet they won’t be commenting about it any longer now that it has been shown to be a campaigner for Susan Collins.

They are all scum. Only slightly related, but I stand by this fact: If magats aren’t actively raping kids, they’re covering up for someone who is actively raping kids.

i hope they were maybe that’d get her to stop for a sec and actually think about what she’s doing … nah… “I hope Collins' clutchin' pearls weren't in that package”

Such a smart thief!! Showed his face and complete outfit, stood there waiting on camera, then took off running as if he’s hiding or getting away with it 😂

Susan Collins has voted to steal women’s rights over their own bodies, health care for low income Mainers, and all of the benefits removed by Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” Of course she attracts other thieves.

It looks like it. He also had on a lanyard and something that plugs into his phone, which is probably campaign-issued tech that shows them which doors of registered voters to knock on--basically tech-enabled door-to-door lists.

Ah, okay. It's been a very very long time since I did door-to-door! I did notice the last time a national campaign came around, they had what looked like dedicated digital devices, so I just guessed that was what was going on here.

Unconfirmed. Seems likely this was just a clever package thief, wearing that t-shirt so he could approach people's homes and see if anyone's there without looking suspicious.
