Troy Jackson Nears Maine Democratic Nomination as Delegate Slate Coalesces

After the first day of county meetings, Troy Jackson has captured the overwhelming majority of available delegates toward the Maine Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate; with 601 voting members (including 500 delegates) set to attend the Bangor convention on July 25, his delegate slate appears to put him on track to clinch the nomination, though delegates are not formally pledged and several opponents have dropped out or endorsed him as the process continues.
