The real lost opportunity was that Jared Golden, the 43 yr old congressman from Northern Maine, Marine Corps vet wasn't recruited for this seat. Instead, it was the aging sitting Govenor.

Who voted to overturn student debt cancellation? Who refused to call for a ceasefire in Gaza? Who supported Trump's strikes in Iran? Who voted against the Bipartisan Background Checks Act? Who voted to fund ICE? Who voted against the BBB Act? Who voted for the SAVE Act? THAT Jared Golden? Lmao

Like I can understand him as a congressman for ME-02. Not happy about it, but Trump has won that district 3 times. So I get that he probably has to be pretty conservative to keep his seat and it's definitely better than having a Republican there. But for a statewide race? Absolutely not

Jared Golden, who said he was "OK with Trump winning" in 2024? Who supported his tariffs? Who voted with Republicans to end the shutdown? Who voted to lift vaccine mandates for healthcare workers? Who was one of 2 Dems to vote against the Justice in Policing Act? (1/)
