U.S. Senate — Maine
Senator Susan Collins seeks a sixth term in one of the most closely watched races in New England, as Democrats recruit a top challenger in a state that leans swing.
Susan Collins has represented Maine in the Senate since 1997, one of the longest-serving Senate Republicans. A centrist who works across the aisle, she chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee and has survived in a state that votes for both parties. She has been a key swing vote on healthcare, judicial confirmations, and foreign aid.
Jared Golden has represented Maine's 2nd congressional district since 2019, one of the most conservative House seats held by a Democrat. A Marine combat veteran (Iraq and Afghanistan), he is known for breaking with his party on key votes and has strong crossover appeal with rural, working-class voters. His moderate profile makes him a strong challenger.
