Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - Maine Beer Company founder Dan Kleban (D) yesterday afternoon announced his Maine Senate bid before Graham Platner suspended his campaign last night: “I ready to fight for Mainers and bring a new generation of leadership to Washington. I believe I can unite our party and finally defeat Susan Collins in November.” He briefly ran for Senate last year before dropping out & endorsed Gov. Janet Mills for Senate. Quoted Post: Dan Kleban @mainebeerbrewer - I’ve been overwhelmed by the countless calls from Mainers encouraging me to consider this race. I love Maine and everything it has given me. It’s where my wife of 22 years and I have raised our teenage twins. And after talking with them, I’m in. https://x.com/mainebeerbrewer/status/2074931548638306565 https://x.com/CraigCaplan/status/2075213205912088832
Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - Former Maine Democratic candidate for governor Dr. Nirav Shah today announced his Maine Senate bid after Graham Platner suspended his campaign late yesterday. He served as the director of Maine's Center for Disease Control and Prevention during the COVID-19 pandemic and later was the CDC's Principal Deputy Director during the Biden Administration. Quoted Post: Nirav D. Shah @nirav_maine - We must defeat Susan Collins, hold Donald Trump accountable, and fight for a government that delivers for everyday Mainers, not the privileged few. That’s why today, I am proud to announce my candidacy for the United States Senate. Establishment politicians have failed us. To defeat Susan Collins, we need an outsider who is not afraid to take on the broken system she has spent decades upholding.
