FARMINGTON, Maine -- This state is an amazing place, especially in the fall. Millions of hardwoods turn it into a riot of gold, orange and yellow against an evergreen backdrop.
FARMINGTON, Maine — This state is an amazing place, especially in the fall. Millions of hardwoods turn it into a riot of gold, orange and yellow against an evergreen backdrop.
Maine is one of the only states with ranked choice voting, a wacky system that almost certainly cost Republican Rep. Bruce Poliquin reelection in 2018. Democrats have controlled Maine’s House since 2013 and have an 82-67 advantage, with two independents. They have controlled the Senate and governorship since 2019 and now have a 22-13 margin and the offices of attorney general and secretary of state.
Earlier this month, Gov. Janet Mills also signed a bill decriminalizing the selling of sex. Not the buying, just the selling. Buying it is still illegal. But you can sell it until the cows come home.“The point of this whole thing is to decrease the demand for commercial sex,” said the bill’s sponsor, state Rep. Lois Reckitt, South Portland Democrat.“Now they’re going to have to arrest the johns and lean on them to find out where the trafficking is coming from,” she told The Washington Post.
In July, Mills signed a law allowing 16- and 17-year-olds to obtain gender transition treatments without their parents’ consent. The Legislature is reviewing a bill, HP 1114, to take custody from out-of-state parents who oppose a child’s getting sex transition drugs or surgery in Maine. The proposal also states that a child cannot be taken from parents who support gender transitions. This is upside down and evil.
