Bangor City Councilman Joe Baldacci is running against Second District Freshman Republican Congressman Bruce Poliquin, in one the most targeted races in the Country.

 

Poliquin, a Tea Party favorite, was elected in 2014 with only 45% of the vote making him one of the most vulnerable members of Congress and our best chance at flipping a seat Blue!

Joe has been a progressive champion his entire life. He is a graduate of the University of Maine and the University of Maine School of Law where he co-founded the Maine Association for Public Interest Law (MAPIL), was a founding member of Maine Won't Discriminate and The Joe Baldacci Minimum Wage Ordinance just passed in Bangor making the city one of the few in the nation to raise the minimum wage.
