General Discussion

The first televised debate will happen on May 7, in partnership with the Press Herald, Maine Public and News Center Maine. Mills, Costello and Platner have agreed to attend.

The Maine Democratic Party announced Monday that all three candidates have accepted invitations to their forums, taking place on May 22 in Bangor and May 26 in Portland.

“We understand that several televised debates have been scheduled,” Kessler said. “In addition, the Maine Democratic Party has agreed to host two all-candidate forums, one in each congressional district to ensure all Maine voters are able to hear directly from candidates. Voters are urged to watch those debates and discussions.”
