Incompetent 10 Sign Nomination in Bangor Maine
In Bangor Maine on September 16 officials debate whether Representative Charles A Boutelle can represent the district in the next Congress as he has been confined in the McLean Asylum. Democrats argue he is ineligible due to mental illness, while Republicans insist his eligibility depends on his condition at the time Congress convenes. Grace Boutelle and Edward Boutelle report improved health but physicians warn against overoptimism. Debate over the validity of his election centers on signature legality and possible contest by Democrats, who see a GOP risk to seat a Democrat.
