Maine's 1st District Race

The trade papers that cover Congress and elections here in Washington, D.C., have been writing on Maine's 1st Congressional District race in the lead up to today's primary.

Roll Call and Congressional Quarterly had articles in recent weeks (subscriptions are required). The Hill takes a stab today (full disclosure: that's where I worked before the Press Herald hired me).

The theme is all the same: as Chellie Pingree and Ethan Strimling run to the left, can first-time candidate Adam Cote win over enough moderate Democrats in the southern part of the district?
