1:11Now PlayingMaine Democrats officially picked Troy Jackson to be their U.S. Senate nominee during a convention Saturday— a move the party’s supporters hope will move them past the fallout from former candidate Graham Platner’s failed campaign and onto victory in November.
Jackson, a logger and former president of the Maine Senate, was selected by delegates who gathered for the convention and voted 566-5 to name him the nominee. Saundra Pelletier, the only other candidate to present at the convention, received 5 votes.
