LePage wins Maine CD2 as Dunlap concedes despite ranked-choice tabulation

Former Governor Paul LePage (R) has won the U.S. House race for Maine's 2nd Congressional District after Democrat Matt Dunlap conceded on November 5, 2026. Although LePage led with 49.9% of first-choice votes, he did not secure the 50% majority required to win outright under Maine's ranked-choice voting (RCV) laws. Consequently, the Secretary of State's Office will still conduct a formal RCV tabulation starting November 9 to certify the result, despite the concession. LePage is set to replace retiring Democrat Jared Golden, marking a significant shift in a district that previously favored Democrats.

LePage leads in Maine 2nd District as Golden’s exit triggers $26M ad war

Former Maine Governor Paul LePage is the favored candidate to replace retiring Representative Jared Golden in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District. LePage, a hard-line conservative, faces progressive State Auditor Matt Dunlap in a race that has attracted over $26.5 million in ad spending. National Republican groups have poured millions into the district, viewing it as a rare opportunity to flip a seat that previously elected a Democrat despite voting for the president three times. The race highlights a shift from Golden’s centrist approach to a more polarized contest.
