Collins avoids protesters outside Bangor home, makes appearance in Norridgewock

https://bangordailynews.com/2018/10/07/politics/protesters-gather-outside-collins-bangor-home/

NORRIDGEWOCK, Maine — U.S. Sen. Susan Collins did not mention Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the crowd in her first public appearance in Maine since her vote confirming the newest Supreme Court justice.

Collins also didn’t speak to about 30 protesters gathered in front of her home in Bangor that morning.

Collins left the dedication ceremony of the Corporal Eugene Cole Memorial Bridge on Route 201A before it ended Sunday, but told some reporters there that Mainers have been “overwhelmingly positive” with her since she came back to Bangor on Saturday night.

“Many people have thanked me for my vote and have said that they were very pleased that I did the right thing,” The Associated Press quoted her as saying after the event honoring the slain sheriff’s deputy.
