Abstract

If one only looks at partisan elections, 2023 would seem to have been a much quieter year for politics in Maine than 2022 was. But both at the polling place and outside of it, 2023 still had much of interest to offer political observers. This article will focus on three key areas of debate and action in Maine politics in 2023: abortion, tribal sovereignty and electrical power; the aftermath of the mass shooting in Lewiston; and statewide elections, both past and future.
