I think Troy Jackson can be a governor for the entirety of Maine, not just the red or blue districts. He is a progressive Democrat who won all his races in a red part of the state because he truly listens to people and makes their needs his priority.
Jackson has proven, long-term success in the Maine Legislature. He articulates a clear vision of how to improve Mainers’ lives through better healthcare, housing, fair wages, childcare and tax reform. He is the only candidate who has taken the People’s Pledge not to take money from any outside groups or super PACs. We need someone willing to push for changes like that to make our government work better for the people who actually live and work in this state.
Troy Jackson has also been endorsed by more unions than any other candidate and will likely have the support of the broader electorate in November.
