The DNC congratulates Matt Dunlap on his victory in the Democratic primary for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District — a race that will help flip the House of Representatives in November. Democratic voters throughout Maine turned out to back candidates who are focused on lowering costs, protecting healthcare, fighting for rural communities, and delivering for working families.
In response to Matt Dunlap’s victory, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
“Matt Dunlap is a fighter for working families who will continue to deliver for Mainers in Congress. From his time as State Auditor to serving as Maine’s Secretary of State, he has been a champion for lowering costs, rooting out corruption, protecting civil rights, and investing in communities. As a lifelong Mainer, he has a positive vision for how to make life more affordable. While extremist Paul LePage has ripped away healthcare and serves special interests, Matt will always put Maine first. The DNC is ready to help him win this seat, take back the House, and make life better for hardworking Mainers.”
