Warren Spending Money to Defeat Susan Collins

September 24, 2019 at 2:55 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D-MA) presidential campaign is putting resources into Maine, where it hopes to help unseat Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) in one of the most high-profile Senate races of this cycle,” the Daily Beast reports.

“A new memo sent to supporters… details a series of investments on state directors and organizers for states that vote and caucus in March. The campaign is devoting these resources not just to boost Warren ahead of primary voting but to assist Democrats in marquee Senate, House, and state legislative contests in 2020.”
