The Democrat Troy Jackson has won Maine’s US Senate race, toppling five-term Republican incumbent Susan Collins in one of the biggest upsets of the 2026 midterms.
Jackson, 58, unseated Collins – who has been in the Senate since 1997 – in a closely fought, and often rancorous, race characterized by mutual accusations of corruption and clashes over living costs in the predominantly rural state.
The victory delivers Democrats one of their most coveted pickup opportunities this midterm cycle, and brings an end to Collins’ nearly three-decade tenure in Washington.
I was so scared that Collins would survive another wave like the cockroach she is.
Finally got her. Good fucking riddance.
It’s okay, I’m sure she learned her lesson. Look at that hangdog expression
Very few senators infuriate me on the regular like Susan Collins does.
And now she’s gone. But maybe not before someone picks up the investigation into her campaign finances again.
Congratulations to Mainers on your new Senator!
I think she’s learned her lesson.
Thank fuck that smarmy condescending jerkbag of a woman is going away. She has been so incredibly annoying and useless.
That slippery witch had to go, and I’m so glad it happened!
Hell YEAH. It will be so nice to see that concern-trolling POS gone…
