Maine Democrats Battle for Collins Seat | Bangor News

Maine’s Democratic Party is in full swing as eight candidates battle it out for the nomination to challenge Senator Susan Collins — the first time in state history such a crowded field has faced off in this way. Split into two evening segments, the contenders are vying for attention ahead of a July 25 delegate convention where the real decision will be made. With four latecomers joining the race, each candidate must stand out and convince the six hundred delegates that they’re the best choice to take on Collins. Tonight’s event is less about winning and more about making a lasting impression — and the stakes couldn’t be higher as Maine’s Democrats prepare for a pivotal general election.
