Despite past victories—even in 2020 when polls predicted defeat—Collins now finds herself trailing Democratic challenger Troy Jackson in tight polls. Her public pushback against President Trump’s tariffs, including voting to repeal some and urging renewed trade talks, has drawn both praise and political peril. Vice President Vance’s recent campaign stop in Maine, which she skipped, further complicated her position. With affordability and economic impact at the forefront for voters, especially in border states, Collins’ ability to sway crossover support may be her last best hope—and analysts warn this could be her most difficult race ever.
