She gets a bye for the tough race she is in in a Democrat state. They have enough Republican votes without her. Murkowski, who does not have an excuse will probably follow her in voting no or abstaining. Hopefully, a real Alaska Republican will primary her. Republicans will still have the votes without those two.
The First CD district in the southeast corner of Maine is the “dermocrat” area.
CD 2, 80% of the state of Maine, is purple.
President Trump carried the 2nd district by 10 points in 2016 for one electoral vote.
Collins pisses me off, but I will vote for her. Collins voted for the majority of Trump’s judicial picks, including Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, as well as the Trump tax cuts. The RAT challenger, Maine House Speaker Sarah Gideon, is a leftist with an AOC-like little girls voice. She would have voted NO on all of the above.
Plus, I want the GOP to keep control of the Senate. Chuckie Schumer as Senate majority leader is unacceptable.
TOUGH. She’s a COWARD!
