Is Maine's Senate Seat Now in Play For Republicans?

Lost in the bad news cycle for the Republicans is some exciting polling that shows several unexpected, incumbent Democrats in real danger.

Anti-Washington sentiment is running near all-time highs, and voters in some key Districts and States are looking to throw incumbents out. With pickups possible in Indiana, Missouri, and Wisconsin, Republicans have a real chance to push back on the so-called "Blue Wave" and actually expand their Senate majority.

There is surprising news from Maine where State Senator Eric Brakey has intriguing numbers showing that this once sure Democratic State may now be back in serous play.

Maine, which was nearly won by Donald Trump in 2016, has a two-term incumbent Governor, firebrand conservative Paul LePage and a conservative Congressman Bruce Poliquin. Trump lost the State by a mere 3 points and won one of the Electoral College votes for the second district.
