Political Scientist Comments on Maine Election Ads

Comments from Amy Fried, a UMaine political scientist, were included in a Seacoast Online newspaper report on how media buys are impacting the race for Maine’s open U.S. Senate seat. Fried says the campaigns are taking a different shape in Maine compared to the rest of the country as pro-Republican groups are promoting the Democrat Cynthia Dill in order to take support away from independent Angus King.
