Washington, D.C.— Following the final results from the first-ever ranked choice voting Democratic Gubernatorial primary in Maine, the Democratic Attorneys General Association (@DemocraticAGs) released the following statement from Executive Director Sean Rankin congratulating Attorney General Janet Mills on her victory. Mills will face Republican primary winner Shawn Moody in November.

“Congratulations to Attorney General Janet Mills and her campaign for clinching the victory in this primary. She was the clear choice for a majority of the voters in Maine—and that is no surprise to us here at DAGA. As Attorney General, Janet Mills continues to find innovative ways to address the opioid epidemic, Medicaid expansion, and gun violence prevention. Attorney General Mills works tirelessly alongside her fellow Democratic Attorneys General to lead the fight for justice and equality—and she always makes sure the voices of the people of Maine are heard.  I am proud to have her on the team of Democratic Attorneys General and I know as Governor, Janet Mills will continue fighting for the citizens of Maine, and for all Americans.”
