Recount in Maine Gov Race Clouded by Challenged Ballots
The Maine gubernatorial recount enters its second week as Republican John H. Reed gains 74 votes in Freeport while Democrat Maynard Dolloff drops 10. Across Brunswick and Portland precincts, Reed loses 81 votes and Dolloff gains 185 with 276 ballots challenged. Only about 47,000 of York County's 47 precincts and half of Cumberland County's 57 have been reviewed, with 7,500 ballots disputed. The final outcome remains uncertain, possibly decided by the 101st Legislature or, Democrats argue, the courts.
