Across the Aisle: Winners and Losers in the 2nd District Debate

And now to our weekly review of Maine politics, "Across the Aisle."  Usually a Thursday feature, it moves to Fridays for the election season to allow for some reflection on MPBN Your Vote 2014 Debates, as well as other debates being held this year. Last night featured a face-off between the candidates in the 2nd Congressional District race here on MPBN. For analysis, we turn to our analysts: Cynthia Dill, a practicing attorney and former Democratic state senator, Dick Woodbury, an economist, former independent legislator, and tax policy consultant to independent gubernatorial candidate Elliot Cutler, and Meredith Strang Burgess, a former Republican legislator and CEO of Burgess Advertising and Marketing in Portland. They spoke with MPBN's Mal Leary.
