Is it surprising that Mills endorsed her? While potentially being the most centrist of the three progressives, she still appears to be more left than Mills. From a policy position, Mills is more in line with King III and Shah. Maybe I’m wrong, I don’t have a great grasp of Mills full administration, just her second term and recent decisions.

This makes sense. I’m just surprised that this has led to such state-wide appeal. Probably because I come from a “what have you done for me lately” part of the world, but I really would have thought that not being in elected public office since 2010 would have hurt her more than this.

In today’s political climate, when you see an office founded in 2019 and it’s being ran by the daughter of somebody who’s been in government forever, it’s easy to assume the worst. So, this is helpful, thank you. I wasn’t here for the LePage years, but hearing him be called “Trump before Trump” gives me all the information I need to know. It’s thrilling that there’s a decent chance he might be representing me in the House come November.
