Part 1
Brunswick (Maine) Area Indivisible gives signs of the times. A voter supression effort in Maine is on the ballot, with Question 1. Touted to "protect the vote," Republican Laurel Libby put the referendum on the ballot, calling for voter ID.

Listening to him speak before he had that deer in headlights moment was reminiscent of the way Levitt speaks, the tone, the cadence… Maybe there’s a MAGA drone school.

VA healthcare saved my life. It allowed me to build my business.

In the richest country on Earth, we can guarantee decent healthcare for all.

Looks like they might hate their own voter base as much as they hate Democrats.

“Enrollment starts November 1, putting pressure on Congress to provide a fix before then. In a partisan twist, more than three in four people enrolled in ACA plans live in states Trump won in 2024.” How ‘bout them apples?

“Question 1 is packed with burdens that would make absentee voting harder for Mainers. Since the campaign started, there have been stories galore, predominantly from and about seniors and people with disabilities, about how it would be harder to vote by mail.”

Misinformation in Maine’s Voter Suppression Referendum Began with a Deceptive Title

Petition tactics hid absentee ballot limits. Question 1 proponents then used Newburgh ballots to mislead further.

This is not information based on facts. www.snopes.com/fact-check/m...

No, Maine's governor didn't say state would stop paying federal taxes

Gov. Janet Mills released two statements addressing President Donald Trump's threat to withhold federal funding, but neither mentioned federal taxes.

There’s disinformation going around here on BlueSky that Governor Mills said something she actually did not say… Another reminder that it’s important to fact check most everything we read! #MEPolitics #CheckTheFacts #NoKings

All year long folks on this site have been calling for primaries against Dems who refuse to stand up for Dem values.

Well, now at least the worst one has a serious challenger. #MEpolitics
