Maine Governor Janet Mills Abruptly Deletes Post Announcing Senate Campaign Launch

Maine Democratic Gov. Janet Mills prematurely announced her campaign for the Senate on social media platform X, but quickly deleted the post after appearing to launch her bid for the seat. The 77-year-old governor's move was seen as a surprise given that she is not yet officially announcing her candidacy. It remains unclear why Mills would release an announcement video and then take it down shortly thereafter. The incident has raised questions about the governor's intentions.
