I read this guy is an "independent". Yeah, in Maine, they don't really have conservatives or constitutionalists. This guy is a liberal.
The interesting twist for me is the "yellow flag" gun law in Maine. It's an example of legislators trying to get a gun law accepted, but then working around the law to grab even more guns in an end run around. The "yellow flag" law in Maine is different from "red flag" laws" elsewhere and in Florida in that a medical professional (doctor) has to sign off before the judge can issue a confiscation order. So what does the good government of Maine do? They hire their own medical professional who is authorized to do a tele-health interview by phone to get the authorization to bring before the judge! Democrats are sneaky bastards!
The mental health system and gun laws failed again, but legal gun owners will be blamed.

Where are you getting that he's an Obama voter? I too thought he was an Independent but there are more right-wing likes than there are the other. Even his likes on CNBC relate to him dissing Biden in some form or another. Just because it happened in a Liberal state don't mean there aren't Conservatives there, they make up about 30-42% of the base in Maine.

Bah, info on him is all over the place atm. This one says he voted Bush then Obama but has no mental illness which he clearly does and has been reported. There is only like a couple of sites showing him as a sex offender or just may have voted for Obama.
