Maine Election Results - Paul LePage Wins

Paul LePage

The Maine election results for the state’s governor are now all in. The race was extremely close between Republican Paul LePage, and Independent Eliot Cutler.

Out of the over 500,000 votes reported, Paul LePage received 215,459 (38%), while Eliot Cutler finished second with 205,583 votes (37%).

The Democratic candidate, Libby Mitchell who was trailing in the polls prior to the election by quite a lot received 107,697 votes (19%).

Paul LePage, a 62 year-old business man, and current mayor of Waterville, Maine will assume office as the state’s governor in January of 2011. He will take over for Incumbent Democrat John Baldacci, who had served as Maine’s Governor since 2003.

    37% which means 63% of Maine didn’t vote for him. Elected officials should need 50% to be elected.

    Thank goodness that Maine will finally have a Governor that will reassert Maine’s sovereignity, cut spending in line with tax revenues and reject the Republican/Democrat Government Elite Party line. Too bad he will be saddled with the recent bond issues.
