Former Sen. Joe Manchin, I-W.Va., is traveling to Maine this week to campaign with Republican Sen. Susan Collins, according to details shared first with Semafor.
The moderate West Virginian said his visit is motivated by the attacks on Collins for voting too often in support of President Donald Trump.
Manchin will hit Maine on Wednesday with Collins and visit Androscoggin County, a fairly evenly divided part of the state. Collins is looking to emphasize her bipartisan credentials down the stretch as her opponent, Democrat Troy Jackson, leans on his progressive allies and campaigns as a blunt check on Trump.



Birds of a feather flock together.
