Troy Jackson is scrambling to defeat Maine Sen. Susan Collins. Time is not on his side – WTOP News
Jackson is holding town halls and rallies as he trails Susan Collins by millions in fundraising and faces a compressed campaign timeline.
- On Sunday, Maine Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Troy Jackson rallied supporters in Bangor, criticizing incumbent Senator Susan Collins' voting record and claiming she aligns with President Trump's agenda.
- Jackson became the nominee in July following the withdrawal of former Democratic nominee Graham Platner, giving him just over 100 days to challenge the five-term incumbent Collins.
- Unlike Collins, who typically avoids public forums, Jackson hosts town halls to hear "directly from voters on the way their lives have been impacted" by the Trump administration's broken economy.
- Jackson and Collins will face off Tuesday for the first of four televised debates this month, with the debate broadcast by WGME, offering Jackson a major platform before Maine voters.
- Republicans have spent more than $80 million on advertising while Democrats spent less than $60 million, a fundraising gap that limits Jackson's resources as Election Day approaches.
