ME-SEN: Janet Mills Says She's Still on the Ballot [View all]

Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D) “is reminding voters that her name is still on the ballot in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate,” the Portland Press Herald reports.

Said Mills: “People have the impression that I ‘withdrew’ or ‘dropped out’ but I simply suspended active campaigning. I am still on the ballot.”
