Democrat Troy Jackson defeated the Republican incumbent, flipping Maine’s US Senate seat after CNN projected his victory and networks said Susan Collins called to concede.
Democrat Troy Jackson has defeated Republican Senator Susan Collins in Maine, flipping her US Senate seat to the Democrats. Collins was a longtime incumbent who had survived previous challenges.
Deadline said multiple networks reported that Collins called Jackson to concede. CNN also projected Jackson’s victory.
The Maine result adds to the Democratic gains that led the Associated Press and major networks to project that the party would control the Senate in the next Congress.
Susan Collins conceded the race in a written statement, saying she had called Troy Jackson to congratulate him, Fox News reported. Collins said she assured Jackson that she and her staff would work to ensure a smooth transition.
The proposed bill would let the regulator order compensation, impose fines and ban operators that push households and businesses into overpriced contracts.
