BREAKING: A new poll shows Governor Mills ahead of extremist Paul LePage by only 3 points - well within the margin of error. With so much on the line, we need your help to break out of this statistical dead heat. We can’t risk losing all our hard-fought progress to LePage — we have to fight back. That’s why we’re doing everything we can to win this election. Can you rush a $5 donation right now to help Gov. Mills win in November?
