  • A State of Opportunity and Our Ability to Fund Basic Services Is Under Exceptional Pressure
    T he numbers don’t lie. Maine’s economy is stuck, with no more non-farm jobs in January 2013 than in October 1999, and incomes that aren’t keeping pace with the rest of the country. Our population is aging, our expenses are high, A State of Opportunity and our ability to fund basic services is under exceptional pressure. A STATE OF OPPORTUNITYA STATE Maine stands on the precarious edge of further decline . yet, at the same time we have it within our power to grasp opportunities for jobs and economic growth not seen in Maine for over 100 years. Standing in the way of these extraordinary opportunities is the fact that our leaders have no plan for Maine’s future. Now is not the time for more politics as usual, or for leaders who don’t lead. Now is the time to act, and to act boldly. We can make Maine healthier, smarter, stronger, younger . and a whole lot more prosperous. Maine can once again be a state of opportunity – and the economic turnaround story of the century! Eliot Cutler Throughout a distinguished career that has taken him from his home- town of Bangor to the nation’s capital, around the world and home again to Maine, Eliot Cutler has maintained an abiding love for his state and a commitment to helping Maine fulfill its promise as a place of unrivaled natural beauty and boundless opportunity.

  • How Trump Could Help Decide Who Wins Control of the Maine Senate
    Page 1 1 of 76 DOCUMENTS Bangor Daily News (Maine) September 25, 2018 Tuesday How Trump could help decide who wins control of the Maine Senate BYLINE: Michael Shepherd BDN Staff LENGTH: 1492 words Good morning from Augusta, where new sexual assault allegations against President Donald Trump's Su- preme Court nominee and confusion about the job status of the deputy attorney general got us thinking about where the president is most and least popular in Maine. We sorted the results of the 2016 presidential election between Trump, a Republican, and Democrat Hillary Clinton by Maine Senate district. It reveals some parallels to national polling showing that under Trump, Re- publicans are increasingly struggling in suburban areas that they have held in the past. Maine is lukewarm on Trump as a whole. A recent poll from Suffolk University found a 41 percent approval rating for the president here, which effectively matched past polls from Morning Consult that put the state near the middle of the pack nationally on Trump. The subtle divisions in his approval could be a key factor in elections here. Some of the most interesting ones come when thinking about control of the Maine Senate, which is controlled by Republicans who hold just a 18-17 lead on Democrats. The smallest switch could flip it. There are eight districts where Trump won a majority of votes. The one where he was most popular is held by a Democrat. Trump, who won the 2nd Congressional District but lost Maine at large to Clinton, only won majorities in eight of Maine's 35 Senate districts.

  • Ipsos Poll Conducted for Bangor Daily News Maine Polling: 10.13.14
    Ipsos Poll Conducted for Bangor Daily News Maine Polling: 10.13.14 These are findings from Ipsos polling conducted for the Bangor Daily News from October 6-12. State-specific sample details are below. The data are weighted to Maine’s current population voter data (CPS) by gender, age, education, and ethnicity. Ipsos’ Likely Voter model (applied to Voting Intention questions only) uses a seven-item summated index, including questions on voter registration, past voting behavior, likelihood of voting in the upcoming election, and interest in following news about the campaign. Statistical margins of error are not applicable to online polls. All sample surveys and polls may be subject to other sources of error, including, but not limited to coverage error and measurement error. Figures marked by an asterisk (*) indicate a percentage value of greater than zero but less than one half of one per cent. Where figures do not sum to 100, this is due to the effects of rounding. MAINE POLLING A sample of 1,004 Maine residents, including 903 Registered Voters (RVs) and 540 Likely Voters (LVs), age 18 and over in Maine was interviewed online. The credibility interval for a sample of 1,004 is 3.5 percentage points; 3.7 percentage points for a sample of 903; and 4.8 percentage points for a sample of 540. Q1.

    Commission Meeting 10/01/2015 STATE OF MAINE COMMISSION ON GOVERNMENTAL ETHICS Agenda Item #2 AND ELECTION PRACTICES 135 STATE HOUSE STATION AUGUSTA, MAINE 04333-0135 To: Commissioners From: Jonathan Wayne, Executive Director Benjamin Dyer, Political Committee and Lobbyist Registrar Date: September 21, 2015 Re: Request for Waiver of Late-Filing Penalties by the Campaign for Maine PAC This matter is a request by the Campaign for Maine political action committee (PAC) for a waiver of two late-filing penalties totaling $15,000 relating to a payment of $25,000 for television advertising that was not reported on time. The Commission staff finds it credible that the omission was an oversight, and recommends reducing the penalties to $1,250. The PAC accepts the staff’s recommendation. When PACs, party committees and others spend money on communications to voters advocating for or against candidates, they are required to file independent expenditure (IE) reports. Prior to the election, these reports provide detailed financial information to the public, the press and the candidates concerning the communications that voters are seeing in their mailboxes and on their TV screens. The reports also contain a sworn statement that the expenditure was made independently of the candidates and their political committees. This is important for purposes of verifying that the expenditure is not coordinated and does not violate the contribution limits for candidates. The IE reports are due within one calendar day, for expenditures made in the last 13 days before a general election. In addition, the spenders are required to include these same payments in a 42-Day Post-General campaign finance report due in mid-December.

  • Gardiner Tightens Leash
    Page 1 1 of 119 DOCUMENTS Kennebec Journal October 18, 2018 Thursday Gardiner tightens leash BYLINE: JESSICA LOWELL SECTION: Pg. 1.A ISSN: 07452039 LENGTH: 662 words DATELINE: Augusta, Me. FULL TEXT Gardiner officials are expected to vote on a measure that would tighten up the city's leash law to require that dogs be on leashes in parks and public areas. City officials OK move requiring all dogs leashed GARDINER -- Even as Gardiner elected officials voted Wednesday to impose a citywide leash law, they also agreed to form a committee to recommend revisions to it. That move reflects the difference in interests between those who live in Gardiner's more densely populated areas and those who live in more rural neighborhoods. Since August, city officials have heard from residents about dog attacks and bites in and around downtown Gardiner and at Waterfront Park. As a result, the City Council has been considering a change to the city's ordinance to require dogs to be on leashes unless they are on their owners' property or on the property of someone who permits them to be off the leash. At a public hearing two weeks ago and again Wednesday, Peter Giampetruzzi brought his objec- tions to city officials. "It's a knee-jerk reaction to a singular incident," Giampetruzzi said. "It's an erosion of my liberty and a deteri- oration of my quality of life in Gardiner." He noted that the ordinance would restrict the actions of law-abiding dog owners and would be ignored by those who were not responsible.
