McKee Faces Endorsement Blow

Governor Dan McKee faces a major blow in his reelection bid as his own hometown’s Democratic Town Committee endorsed his primary challenger, Helena Foulkes, 30 to 11, calling for fresh leadership with more vision and energy. Foulkes frames it as a rejection of the status quo, while McKee’s campaign remains silent. But he’s not without momentum — the state’s largest healthcare union backed him, praising his role in saving key hospitals, and he dropped a new ad focusing on his own grit, admitting he’s not always polished but crediting himself for getting critical wins, like pushing through offshore wind permits against Trump.
