Brewer speaks to AP about donations to Maine governor race

Mark Brewer, political science professor at the University of Maine, spoke to the Associated Press about the Democratic Governors Association reserving $5 million in television advertising for Gov. Janet Mills’ reelection campaign. The Maine Republican Party previously announced nearly $4 million in TV ad bookings for former Republican Gov. Paul LePage’s campaign in the race. “They’ll have money to do whatever they want to do. Neither side is going to run short of funds,” Brewer said. U.S. News and World Report, the Bangor Daily News, CentralMaine.com, Richmond Times-Dispatch (Richmond, VA), Albany Democrat-Herald (Albany, NY) and other national outlets shared the AP report.
