Progressive Change Campaign Committee Endorses Sheena Bellows In Key Maine Senate Race
Sheena Bellows Outraises Susan Collins (R-Maine) In latest Fund-Raising Quarter
Today, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) is endorsing Sheena Bellows for the U.S. Senate in a key upset race against Republican incumbent Susan Collins.
In the latest fund-raising quarter, Sheena Bellows outraised Susan Collins.
Collins reported $314,921 for the quarter while Bellows raised $331,454.
Over 80 percent of bellows' contributions were $100 or less.
"We call Sheena Bellows the Elizabeth Warren of civil liberties, because she's campaigning boldly on constitutional freedom and economic populism," said PCCC co-founder Stephanie Taylor.
"Like Elizabeth Warren's challenge to former Sen. Scott Brown, many insiders thought Susan Collins was unbeatable..Until now."
Collins helped block the public option, strong Wall Street reform, and protections for seniors and veterans.

(14,087 posts)This really does happen a lot on DU, however. Sometimes I never do find out the location someone is talking about, and I have to post a question to that effect.
I didn't mean to yell at you.

(27,866 posts)It's a wonder the link works, considering that it's "Shenna" and not "Sheena"...
I'll try to correct that error.
