Jared Golden represents a tough district in a tough year for House Democrats, but his blueprint for getting reelected is simple: Make sure everyone knows that, sometimes, he can’t stand his party either

“We have to ask ourselves about some of the policies that the national party is pursuing,” Golden said, granting a rare interview to a national outlet as he traversed the University of Maine campus in a dusty Chevy pickup. “I think, sometimes, I don’t agree with my party’s characterization of what are the most pressing needs at the moment.”
“He is trying to do what Joe Biden did successfully — which is fool enough Americans into Biden being a moderate to win the race. Biden’s not a moderate,” Poliquin said in a recent interview outside a campaign stop, just before unloading a box of doughnuts he’d brought for a ridealong with the Lewiston Police Department.

As Biden’s approval rating was barely crossing 40 percent around Memorial Day of this year, one previously unreported poll here found that Golden’s own favorability was at 60 percent.
“Jared is more of an old-time Democrat where yes, you belong to a party, but he’s more on the right in the Democrat Party,” said Edes. “I think he’s going to win.”
