Jackson, a Republican-turned-Democrat who previously led the state Senate, ended up clinching the nomination. In his victory speech, he vowed to stand up to President Trump, fight for LGBTQ rights and healthcare, and talked about the recent ICE shooting in Maine. #midterms #maine #senate #platner #democrats #susancollins #troyjackson
