We need a public option because health insurance is reaching a crisis point for many Mainers. As governor, I'll use the power of the state to build a solution. Check out my article that was just published in the Portland Press Herald, here:

10/11 The people pushing Maine’s Yes on 1 campaign sure do like voting absentee. Rep. Laurel Libby voted in-person absentee on Monday, and at least seven Republican state representatives have already requested absentee ballots for November's election. #maine #MEpolitics
