This blogger is adding to the above press release received from the campaign, that on October 27, 2022, the “Bangor Daily News” Editorial Board endorsed Janet Mills for another term as Maine’s governor.  The Editorial Board highlighted her strong leadership, demeanor, as well as her policy priorities.  The “BDN” criticized LePage’srecord and his campaign policies, calling him “crass.”  For the complete endorsement from the BDN, please visit post herein dated October 27, 2022 herein.

“Where is the “Portland Press Herald” on the governor’s race?  When will the Editorial Board of the local daily announce it’s choice for the next governor?” asks this blogger.  “On November 9th?”
