AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Maine Senate Race: A new Fox News poll shows Susan Collins and Troy Jackson in a dead heat, with voters citing inflation and high prices as top concerns. Campaign Fallout: Police records from 1988 allege Jackson assaulted a man and “pushed around” his girlfriend/second cousin, Lana Pelletier—an issue Jackson says he’s addressed and taken responsibility for. Public Health: Gov. Maura Healey’s administration is temporarily restricting kratom statewide, moving it to Schedule I while local boards gain more enforcement power. Food Safety: A major jalapeño recall tied to Salmonella has expanded, with Maine among the affected states as officials warn people not to eat or serve recalled peppers. Local Government & Taxes: Harpswell cut its tax rate after a 49% property revaluation hike, aiming to keep most bills steady. Community & Safety: The Maine Bureau of Highway Safety urges drivers to slow down as school starts, emphasizing school zones and bus stops. Wildlife: A beloved moose ambassador, Byron, died at the Maine Wildlife Park in Gray. Sports/Events: Hospice Volunteers of Waldo County hosts a flexible 5K on the Belfast Rail Trail Sept. 12, and the 7th annual Maine Book Festival returns Aug. 22 in Thomaston.
