- The sun was bright as Governor-elect Hannah Pingree gathered Wednesday morning with dozens of supporters in Fort Allen Park on Portland’s Eastern Promenade.
Pingree described a new transition website she has launched ahead of taking office in January and asked Mainers of all stripes to send in their ideas to her. She highlighted Tuesday’s results around the country, including how a record number of17 women are now governors, 13 of whom are Democrats.
“Maine did not just vote for me,” Pingree said, with Portland Mayor Mark Dion and U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree, her mother, among the supporters joining her with Casco Bay in the background. “Maine sent a message to the whole country. We are ready to fix what is broken.”
“The people of Maine did not give this trust so we can play it small,” Pingree added, referring to the expanded majorities won in the Legislature. “They gave us this trust so we can get big things done.”

- Mobile home lot rent stabilization on the ballot in six towns statewide, including Augusta, Farmington, Jay, Oakland, Standish, and Wells.
Some Oakland voters are supporting the effort to control costs. There, voters cited high cost of living and say they wonder how people on fixed incomes can be expected to pay exceedingly high rent for the land they keep their houses on.

A citizens initiative brought the mobile home lot rent question to the ballot in Oakland after the town council said it would not pursue an ordinance. Towns across the state have been facing the same question as out-of-state owners raise rents on mobile home lots.
Oakland has seen higher than usual turnout for a midterm election so far, according to Town Clerk Kathy Paradis.
