Summary

Troy Jackson is surging in the Maine Senate race, holding a commanding 61% of pledged delegates with just over 200 still uncommitted — a strong sign of momentum heading into the July 25th Democratic convention in Bangor. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Shenna Bellows has dropped out, while Dr. Nirav Shah and Jordan Woods trail with less than 1% each, leaving just 4% of delegates undecided. With the deadline for candidate signatures Monday, July 20th, all eyes are on Jackson to see if he’ll officially clinch the nomination.
