It seems that U.S. Sen. Susan Collins’ reelection success hinges on touting her role in procuring funding for Maine communities and organizations. Though affordability issues for Mainers will likely be central, I believe Collins’ shameful vote to put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court deserves to dog her in the next 12 weeks. For Collins, another ill-timed tragedy is the killing by ICE of Johan Durán Guerrero at a traffic stop in Biddeford. The political insider in this race is not Troy Jackson, but Susan Collins. I believe the candidate for reelection who has not held a town hall in 25 years will rely on an ad campaign to offer us a carefully curated Susan Collins, courageous independent woman senator from Maine.
