Disability Rights Maine and our partners at Consumer Council System of Maine, Speaking Up For Us , the University of Maine Center for Community Inclusion and Disability Studies, and the Maine Developmental Disabilities Council, are pleased to share candidate videos featuring those running for Governor, U.S. Senate, and U.S. House. Each video lets the candidates speak directly to voters about their policy and platform priorities relating to the disability community.
A note on participation: All candidates for each race were invited to submit a video. The videos included are the submissions we received, so you will notice not every candidate on your ballot is featured here. Inclusion or absence of a video is not an endorsement or a reflection on any candidate.
We encourage you to watch, share with family and friends, and do your own research before casting your ballot.
Thank you for being an engaged and informed voter.
