Last week, Paul LePage claimed that a bill restricting abortion rights would not make it to his desk if he is re-elected because “half the Republican Party wants them [pregnancies] to go to term and half of them are pro-choice.” This is plainly false.
Earlier this week, in addition to reminding Mainers who he really is, Paul LePage downplayed the economic importance of abortion rights—claiming that since he is focused on fiscal issues, “I don’t have time for abortion.”
This week, the Maine Ethics Commission fined Paul LePage’s campaign $3,000 after it missed a finance report filing deadline, allegedly because the campaign manager fell asleep.
"Mills will help lead our state to a stronger, more prosperous and more diverse future. LePage would try to take us backwards, sinking our state again into needless controversy, vitriol and regressive policymaking.”
