Brewer Comments in Candidate Profiles

University of Maine political scientist Mark Brewer was interviewed for a Kennebec Journal profile of Republican U.S. House candidate Kevin Raye, currently president of the Maine State Senate, who is challenging incumbent Democratic U.S. House member Mike Michaud for his seat. Brewer said even though Raye is presenting a hearty challenge for Michaud, incumbents usually have an advantage. Brewer also was interviewed for a Maine Public Broadcasting profile of Libertarian Andrew Ian Dodge of Harpswell, who is running for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Olympia Snowe.
