Inventory completeness is not policy-audit completeness. Missing evidence is unscored. Party platforms are not imputed to individuals.
Position and record comparison
Hannah Pingree, Bobby Charles, and independent Rick Bennett are the current field. Maine Morning Star compares healthcare, enforcement, housing, energy, taxes, tribal sovereignty, data centers, and education. Earlier Democratic-primary answers by Shenna Bellows or Troy Jackson are not Pingree’s positions.
US Populists assessment
Compare the same mechanism for all three: housing supply and immediate relief, rural provider capacity, revenue, energy bills, and tribal legal commitments. Bennett’s departure from a party is not an independent-policy score. Withhold a complete matrix until each current answer and record is checked.
