  1. Dems in #Maine’s #2ndDistrict race tackle #tribal topics in #PresqueIsleME

    By Cameron Levasseur, May 13, 2026

    "The four Democrats competing in a June primary to face former Gov. #PaulLePage for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District met Wednesday night in Presque Isle at a forum put on by the #WabanakiAlliance to discuss tribal sovereignty and other issues facing the state’s native population.

    "Hosted by the #MikmaqNation, one of Maine’s four #WabanakiNations, the event lasted two hours and covered a broad range of topics, from #WaterRights to gaming legislation to the teaching of #NativeHistory in Maine’s schools.

    "The candidates — State Auditor #MattDunlap, state Sen. #JoeBaldacci, former political operative #JordanWood and social worker #PaigeLoud — agreed on nearly everything, chiefly in their wholehearted support of #TribalSovereignty.

    "#Sovereignty has dominated the political conversation around Maine’s tribes for years, with majority support for its expansion in the state legislature countered by opposition from the state’s executive leaders, including LePage and then Gov. #JanetMills.

    " 'Only when I worked on these issues federally … did I understand how wrong Maine has been to its tribes and the need to rectify that #injustice,' Wood said.
    If elected, all four said they would reintroduce a 2022 bill put forth by U.S. Rep. Jared Golden, to amend the #MaineIndianClaimsSettlementAct of 1980 and give the Wabanaki the same rights under federal law as the 570 #FederallyRecognizedTribes.

    "Golden currently represents the 2nd District but abruptly announced last fall that he would not seek reelection. His bill failed in the Senate after it was blocked by Sen. #AngusKing, another Maine politician who has expressed skepticism at tribal rights expansions."

  2. Former Gov. LePage files to run for Congress in Maine’s 2nd District #maine #paullepage #cartoon

  3. #EliotCutler twice ran for governor of #Maine (2010 and 2014), each time as an independent liberal, each time undercutting the #Democratic candidate and handing victory to the #Republican proto-Trumpist #PaulLePage. (His two spoiler campaigns pushed Maine to lead the nation in adopting #RankedChoiceVoting.) Cutler is now going to prison for possession of #ChildPornography.

  4. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
    Child pornography fetishist #EliotCutler and his Jupiter-sized ego enabled #Trumplite #teaparty Governor #PaulLePage to run #Maine into the ground for eight years. This cluster*** set the table for the nation.
    He'll spend nine months in county jail.
    His insufferable 2010 and 2014 #thirdway supporters can pound sand.
