Could a Republican win back the second congressional district in Maine? The polls don't make it seem like a likely occurrence.
Incumbent U.S. Representative Jared Golden (D-Maine) holds a commanding 25-point lead over his Republican challenger Dale Crafts in the most recent poll put out by Colby College. In it, Golden had 56 percent support and Crafts had 31 percent.
The Democrats are trying to make it socially unacceptable to vote to re-elect Trump.
It seems to be working so far, at least up to a point. The Republican governor of Maryland, Larry Hogan, says he wrote in Ronald Reagan. The Republican governor of Massachusetts, Charlie Baker, says he "cannot support Donald Trump for president." The Republican Party's 2012 presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, currently a U.S. senator from Utah, says he voted in the 2020 presidential election, and not for Trump. A Republican who was governor of Michigan from 2011 to 2018, Rick Snyder, is publicly backing Biden.
