The Democrat Troy Jackson has won Maine’s US Senate race, toppling five-term Republican incumbent Susan Collins in one of the biggest upsets of the 2026 midterms.
Jackson, 58, unseated Collins – who has been in the Senate since 1997 – in a closely fought, and often rancorous, race characterized by mutual accusations of corruption and clashes over living costs in the predominantly rural state.
The victory delivers Democrats one of their most coveted pickup opportunities this midterm cycle, and brings an end to Collins’ nearly three-decade tenure in Washington.
Schumer and Jeffries are heart-broken at the loss of their dear neoliberal colleague. Hopefully they join her soon.
We want justice not revenge!!!
¿Porque no los dos?
Because we want justice and progress on real issues. That’s plenty to focus on
We need both. Seriously. We need progress on existential and social issues and we also must have justice or conservatives will return with even more effective fascism. No matter what, conservatives will always call justice “revenge”.
Yes. Both
did she even say thank you?
Good. She should have retired, but she was greedy, and had more to steal, so now she has the pleasure of being whooped in embarrassing and humiliating fashion in front of the whole world.
How long until she gets a 7-figure job at Lockheed Martin?
That would be their loss. She is truly dumber than a box of sand and her colleagues in the GOP hate her.
Finally they got rid of that faithless crow.
Reading this feels so good.
how was it even this close, wtf :(
It wasn’t really close, that’s a pretty embarrassing loss for an incumbent
I was so scared that Collins would survive another wave like the cockroach she is.
Finally got her. Good fucking riddance.
It took people hating Donald Trump enough to finally get rid of her.
It’s okay, I’m sure she learned her lesson. Look at that hangdog expression
I think she’s learned her lesson.
Hahaha get shit on, Collins 🦀🦀🦀🦀
Now she’s really concerned.
