PDA Endorses Progressive Champion
Betsy Sweet for U.S. Senate in Maine
Betsy Sweet is running to become a U.S. Senator from Maine. She received 90% support in Progressive Democrats of America (PDA)’s endorsement poll. The PDA National Election Team reviewed Sweet’s questionnaire, and is also very enthusiastic about her candidacy.
It is absolutely essential that the Democratic Party win control of the U.S. Senate away from Mitch McConnell in 2020. For that to happen, we must flip the Maine Senate seat next year.
Republican Susan Collins is more-than-vulnerable, following her disgraceful support for Brett Kavanaugh. That’s why we endorsed Betsy Sweet in this key battleground.

Somehow she needs more forums to support her…very likable,
Needs more heavy-duty endorsements?
I am supporting Betsy Sweet. At least she addresses the issues and I do not see that coming from the other female candidate!
Love the idea of having Senator Sweet! She needs the support here in district 2! Farmington and Orono have strong liberal populations that would back her in a primary if they knew about this primary! Please help more with getting the word out in Maine!!
