  • Good evening friends and neighbors! What a fantastic opportunity to briefly chat with U.S. Senator Susan Collins while she was in Boothbay yesterday. Thanks to Stephanie Hawke for hosting Our Senator. In November, I pray our fellow Mainers really think about the experience Senator Collins brings to DC. I admire her years of service, dedication to her constituents, and her willingness to work with both parties when needed.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
