Maine Senate Polling as Susan Collins, Troy Jackson Head into Fourth Debate
Collins and Jackson will take the stage for the fourth and final time Thursday as absentee voting is underway in Maine.
Maine's Senate race is heating up as Republican Senator Susan Collins and her Democratic challenger Troy Jackson prepare for their fourth and final debate. According to a new poll from Suffolk University, Jackson leads Collins by 2 points among 500 likely voters. Jackson holds a 49% support rate, while Collins receives 47% of the votes.
The margin of error for this poll is plus or minus 4.4 percentage points. Although Jackson leads among independent voters, 47% to 44%, Collins still holds a slight edge among them, at 47% to 44%. Democrats see Maine as a critical toss-up state that could determine control of the chamber in the 2026 midterms. If Collins continues to lead, it would make it more difficult for Democrats to flip the state and gain control of the Senate.
