- For our deep dive this week, we are focusing on the US Senate race Lightning Round style. Since there are so many moving parts, we’ll pull a few recent headlines and ask our analysts to tell us if what is happening is going to be impactful or insignificant.
Then, for our next lightning round, we will play Newsworthy or Snoozworthy with a potpourri of topics– such as Gov. Janet Mills leaving a billion dollar deficit for her successor.
Also, Freeport is voting on whether to allow a landlocked boat to launch.
We will discuss the newsworthiness of these and other items.
And then to wrap up– we’ll travel back in time to see the origins of the movement that would make Maine a state.
