Chuck Ellis and Jon Fetherston of The Maine Wire recap the 2026 Maine Republican State Convention: strong organization and attendance, Sen. Tim Scott’s speech, speeches from all seven gubernatorial candidates, and the straw poll results and what they mean for a tightening primary.
They also discuss Maine after eight years of Governor Janet Mills, including fraud, education, taxes and spending, energy costs, city issues in Portland, Lewiston and Bangor, and no tax on tips and overtime.
