Maine: Legislative free-for-all gives Democrats 24 uncontested seats
"For the first time since 1998, more than 30 seats in the Maine Legislature will go to candidates, mostly Democrats, who face no opposition in November."
"The uncontested seat count puts Democrats in a good position to control the Legislature again in 2020. The party currently holds broad majorities in both chambers, with 21 of the 35 Senate seats and 89 of the 151 seats in the House.
And while both parties have seen record enrollment numbers, Democrats also are outpacing Republicans by 91,000 voters and earlier this year surpassed unenrolled voters, those not enrolled in either party, as the dominant voting bloc for the first time in 30 years."
