News summary

Democrats appear poised to maintain their trifecta in the Maine Legislature, successfully retaining control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, with results still pending for a few close races. In the Senate, Democrats secured a 20-15 majority, while the House results indicate a slight edge, with a possible 76- to 77-seat majority compared to Republicans' 74 seats. Despite the Democratic victories, Republicans made gains by flipping some districts and unseating incumbents. Maine Democratic Party Chair Bev Uhlenhake expressed pride in the election outcomes, emphasizing the representation of everyday Mainers. Governor Janet Mills will benefit from this continued Democratic control during her final two years in office. The narrow margins, especially in the House, suggest potential challenges ahead for the Democratic majority.
