Former Maine Sen. Rick Bennett, running as an independent, gains traction in 2026 gubernatorial race with bipartisan appeal and strong fundraising.
In Maine’s 2026 gubernatorial race, former Republican Sen. Rick Bennett, who left the party in 2025, is running as an independent, promoting pragmatic solutions on housing, economic growth, and bipartisan cooperation.
He has raised more funds than some party-backed candidates and drawn support from Democrats and independents, including Rep. Lydia Crafts.
Bennett’s campaign reflects growing voter interest in nonpartisan leadership, backed by Maine’s history of electing independent governors like Angus King.
Despite challenges in a polarized era, he says his issue-focused approach is resonating, especially with younger voters and independents seeking leaders who prioritize results over ideology.
