Shenna Bellows to Leave Democratic Senate Race

AUGUSTA, Maine (WABI) - Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows announced that she is leaving the race to replace democratic senate nominee Graham Platner.

In a statement she said, “Donald Trump’s attacks on our democracy are only accelerating, and the best way that I can serve our state and country at this moment is by focusing exclusively on my role as Secretary of State.”

Saturday, counties voted for their delegates to represent them in the convention being held on July 25.

The elected delegates will convene at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor on July 25 to vote for Platner’s replacement. The event will be live streamed for the public.

As counties post results, they will be found on the Maine Democrats Website.
