Quartz cites Fried in article on American left

Quartz cited Amy Fried, a political science professor at the University of Maine, in the article, “The American left has its own Tea Party, and it’s coming for Donald Trump.” The article cited a Bangor Daily News blog post by Fried that described the effort of Maine residents to persuade Sen. Susan Collins to vote to kill the latest effort to repeal Obamacare. “The effort seemed a perfect illustration of democracy in action: a concerted, civil, and well-argued public pressure campaign in which the politician actually listened and changed,” the article states.
