Three former chairs of the Maine Republican Party endorse Harris over Trump

Three former chairs of the Maine Republican Party “enthusiastically endorsed” Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris for president over GOP nominee and former President Donald Trump in an opinion piece published by Bangor Daily News on Monday.

“We led our party at a time when candidates of both parties were not only civil and believed in the rule of law, but, we believe, had the best interests of the state and entire nation foremost in their hearts, even when we disagreed on policies,” wrote Robert A.G. Monks, Ken Cole and Ted O’Meara.

“We see these same positive characteristics are on full display in Vice President Harris and her candidacy. Sadly, they are completely lacking in her opponent,” they wrote.

Monks, Cole and O’Meara criticized what they called Trump’s divisive rhetoric, praising in contrast Harris’ commitment to become “a president for all Americans, regardless of political party.”
