Vice President JD Vance delivered remarks on the economy and campaigned for U.S. House candidate Paul LePage (R-ME) at a rally in Brewer, Maine in Part 2 of video. Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler spoke before the Vice President. “The future is right here in Maine,” Vice President Vance told the crowd, “as long as we fight for it.” He touted the Trump administration’s economic policy, saying they support an ongoing domestic “manufacturing renaissance.” He also told attendees that Mr. LePage would “put the fraudsters behind bars and fight for you for a change” if elected. Mr. LePage would go on to face state auditor Matt Dunlap (D-ME) in the November 3rd, 2026 general election, which the nonpartisan Cook Political Report rated as “Likely Republican.”
