Who am I?

I was born and raised in Maine. I attended public in Portland and went on to attend Bowdoin College, Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and Harvard law school. I served on the Portland City Council and as Mayor before being elected to the United States House of Representatives from the First District of Maine in 1996.

Why am I running?

I feel that there is a lot at stake in the upcoming election. We need to end our involvement in the Iraq war, we need to provide health care for every American and we must address the growing threat of climate change and our country's energy crisis. I also strongly believe that we need a working majority in the United States Senate to accomplish these and many other progressive goals in order to order to move our country forward.

My Goals

Ending the war in Iraq, providing health care for all, and addressing climate change and our national energy policy.

About the Endorsement Process

All campaigns seeking a DFA endorsement are first required to complete the endorsement application in order to be considered. Members of the DFA Political team will review applications after submission and make endorsement decisions on a rolling basis throughout the applicable election cycle.

The driving force behind all DFA endorsements is our membership. We gauge DFA member support in a number of different ways. For starters, supporters can publicly show their support on any candidate’s application page. We also utilize endorsement decisions of local DFA groups as a measure of local community support. Finally, if you know a candidate deserving of a DFA endorsement who hasn’t yet applied, we want to hear about them! Please visit the Endorsement FAQ page for answers to frequently asked questions about our endorsement process.

If you still have any questions, or want to let us know about a candidate in your neighborhood, please call us at (802) 651-3200 or email us at [email protected] .
