The April 8 op-ed lauding Sen. Susan Collins’ support for the SAVE America Act begs a rebuttal.
Most Mainers know our elections are free, fair, honest, transparent and deserving of our trust. The only people trying to sow doubt and fear that “illegal aliens” are trying to undermine our elections are those MAGA types engaged in reprehensible voter suppression efforts; efforts that may be the only thing to keep Republicans in power. I believe this is why Mainers defeated last fall’s voting bill (64% to 36%).
Sadly, Sen. Collins has shown us that not even an honorable Republican can survive the transformation of their party by the forces of MAGA. Knuckling under, she has made her calculations and decided to sacrifice citizen’s voting rights — along with her own integrity.
