Maine Elections: Democrat Troy Jackson unseated Susan Collins, ending her nearly 30-year Senate career, while Hannah Pingree won the governor’s race. Democrats also expanded their control of the Legislature. Local Results: Lincoln County voters returned several incumbents, including Sen. Cameron Reny, and elected Democratic newcomers Jennifer Mayher and Charlotte Nutt. Technology and Communities: Maine voters joined communities nationwide in rejecting or restricting data center projects, including in Wells, amid concerns about energy use and local impacts. Climate Education: Maine students can now earn a Seal of Climate Literacy by taking two climate-focused science courses and completing a hands-on project. Arts and Culture: The Heather Pierson Trio will perform A Charlie Brown Christmas at Boothbay Harbor’s Opera House on Dec. 19. Maine author Stephen King also made a rare public appearance in New York for a discussion of his new novel.
