Troy Jackson asegura la nominación demócrata de Maine en la convención de delegados

Los demócratas de Maine eligieron al ex presidente del Senado estatal, Troy Jackson, como su candidato al Senado de EE.  UU. en una convención de delegados en Bangor.

La decisión se produjo después de que el candidato original, Graham Platner, se retirara tras acusaciones de agresión sexual, lo que abrió la carrera a varios aspirantes. Jackson ya había asegurado la gran mayoría de los delegados de los condados – alrededor del 94 % en la primera ronda – y la secretaria de Estado, Shenna Bellows, abandonó la contienda para centrarse en sus funciones. Otros contendientes, incluido el ex funcionario de salud Nirav Shah, también competían por la nominación en las semanas previas a la convención.
