Funny how everyday Troy Jackson just by being himself proves how unworthy Susan Collins is to be handed a 6th term.Time to retire Suzie Two Term.

Growing up in the St. John Valley, French heritage was all around me. But so was a long history of animosity toward French people and the French language...

I wish folks would focus on the mountain of disrespect that Concerned Susie has shown to Maine and American women by supporting Kavanaugh!! Our man Troy was simply responding in a plain, human way to her attempt to shame him. But her support for Kavanaugh has put millions of women in actual danger!

Even our Waterville mayor's very busy wife, Aimee, isn't TOO busy to find time to vote. What are YOU waiting for? Avoid the lines on Nov 3 and protect your vote by voting early! Just do it!!

Susan Collins tells Mainers she thinks RFK Jr, who is destroying public health in America, is just swell, during a heated Maine Senate debate.

My friend, Waterville City Councilor Samantha Burdick, knows the importance of citizens voting if we all want to live in a healthy democracy. So she voted early today and hopes you will too! JUST DO IT!

My friends Jerzy and Hilary voted early and they want you to do the same! Voting is a right and a privilege that we who live in democracies (even flawed ones like the USA) should never take for granted or squander. JUST DO IT!

Maine is "bizarre"? Please. Maine is a beautiful, brave, wonderful state and many, many of us Mainers are--as always--working as hard and seriously as folks anywhere else to save our democracy.

A very good night is all of the above, plus we pick-up Maine and Iowa, where the Democratic candidates (Troy Jackson and Josh Turek, respectively) have slim aggregate polling leads. I trust Iowa more than Maine. Because Maine is bizarre. But this would be 53 seats. Fetterman neutralized. Amazing.

AMEN!

Troy Jackson was given a monumental challenge to run against Collins with little time for preparation, fundraising or to develop a campaign strategy. Remember, Collins joined the Senate when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth. Troy Jackson’s performance has been heroic!

I used to think our democracy was as sturdy as this magnificent tree, and needed very little tending from us humans. Increasingly I understand that we need to be regularly and actively engaged to protect it! Voting is such a simple but also precious act of engagement. JUST DO IT!!!

www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve... Waterville-area friends: Pls consider signing up for at least ONE door-knocking shift during the remaining days of this campaign season (I've done a half dozen already). Let's not look back from the vantage point of Nov 4 & wish we'd done more to save our democracy!
