Brian Duff quoted in article about Maine gubernatorial race

Brian Duff, Ph.D., ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ associate professor of political science, was quoted in a recent story about the Maine gubernatorial race.

In the article, which explained that Republican Governor Paul LePage is in a statistical dead heat with Democratic challenger Mike Michaud, Duff states, β€œ[Michaud] is bringing a lot of energy to this race, a lot of money and support. He’s a very strong candidate.”

Duff goes on to say, however, that that independent candidate Eliot Cutler possesses too much money and debating acumen to be counted out. β€œHe may be self-financed, but he’s got deep pockets,” Duff said. β€œI think people are crazy to think things can’t shift between now and election day.”
