In Allagash, a hamlet of some 200 people near Canada, residents are sharply divided over Troy Jackson.<\/strong><\/p>

Troy Jackson celebrates after being officially chosen by Maine Democrats as their Senate nominee in Bangor, Maine, last month. (Sofia Aldinio\/For The Washington Post)<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

ALLAGASH, Maine \u2014 Wayne McBreairty arrived at the town office here <\/b>one recent morning on a mission.<\/p>\n

Sporting a black Troy Jackson for Maine baseball cap, he clutched a sheet of notepad paper scrawled with a message: \u201cCongratulations Troy Jackson on your Nomination to run for Election to the U.S. Senate.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was the notice that McBreairty, a longtime supporter of Maine Democrats\u2019 newly installed replacement Senate nominee<\/a>, hoped officials in Jackson\u2019s tiny hometown would add to the digital sign outside their tiny municipal building.<\/p>\n

\u201cWin or lose, that\u2019s my highlight of politics, that a friend of mine could potentially be a U.S. senator,\u201d McBreairty said, momentarily choked with emotion.<\/p>\n

Inside her office, Allagash\u2019s town manager sat writing checks. Nola Begin is <\/b>no fan of Jackson, whom she <\/b>says didn\u2019t do enough to help their struggling community as he rose through the political ranks over two decades to become president of the Maine Senate.<\/p>\n

Three years ago, they clashed when Jackson ran unsuccessfully for the position Begin now holds. She couldn\u2019t understand why one of the most powerful politicians in the state wanted the job at all.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have functions in this community that he never shows up to. We have deaths in this community that he never shows up to,\u201d Begin said. \u201cWe don\u2019t see Troy here in this community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gleeful about flaunting Jackson\u2019s victory, McBreairty handed Begin his note, wondering whether she would be willing to post the message.<\/p>\n

She stared at it silently for 10 seconds, her expression betraying nothing, before confirming that she could take care of his request the next day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you for doing that,\u201d McBreairty said. \u201cI just thought it would be appropriate to give him recognition.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolutely,\u201d Begin concurred. \u201cNothing wrong with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

As he takes on veteran Republican Sen. Susan Collins this November in one of the marquee races for control of the Senate, Jackson is betting that his background, including an early career in the logging industry<\/a>, will allow him to reach the rural Mainers who have increasingly drifted away from the Democratic Party. An oft-repeated stump slogan invites voters into a movement not from the left or the right, but from the bottom.<\/p>\n

But even in Allagash, a one-road hamlet within spitting distance of the Canadian border, its 200-odd residents are sharply divided over their most famous son.<\/p>\n

For some, Jackson\u2019s elevation to Senate candidate \u2014 he replaced Maine Democrats\u2019 original nominee, Graham Platner, who withdrew in a cloud of scandal<\/a> \u2014 is a moment of pride.<\/p>\n

National politicians don\u2019t typically come from a place such as Allagash. It\u2019s so remote that half the town doesn\u2019t have cell service and the radio almost exclusively picks up French-language stations broadcasting from Quebec. Like much of northern Maine, Allagash has been in economic and population decline for decades, though it\u2019s now sustained in part by tourism \u2014 canoeing on the adjoining Allagash River and hunting and snowmobiling in the surrounding woods.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost people think that one person can\u2019t make a change and they can. One person can make a difference,\u201d said Darlene Dumond, who runs Two Rivers Lunch, the only restaurant in town. \u201cBut I don\u2019t know if anybody ever thought that [would be] a man coming from a small little place like Troy Jackson. There are millions that identify with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jackson continued to win reelection to the state legislature <\/b>for two decades, even as the historically Democratic region he represented trended more conservative. In 2020, he received 59 percent <\/b>of the vote in his Senate district, while Collins won more than 67 percent <\/b>of Aroostook County, where Allagash is located.<\/p>\n

His supporters insist that Jackson retains the authentic appeal of an outsider who will fight for the working class.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s not going to be in the pocket of anyone,\u201d Dumond said. \u201cI doubt that that will happen to a man from Allagash. It just doesn\u2019t happen like that here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Others are more skeptical of his ability to draw in Republicans.<\/p>\n

\u201cShould you have your camera on my face right now?\u201d Begin told a reporter when asked about the prospect, contorting into what might be described as a quizzically derisive scowl.<\/p>\n

In a community that maintains close ties to logging \u2014 a visitor will lose count of the number of trucks driving by stacked with timber \u2014 Jackson\u2019s opponents resent how a man who long ago pivoted to politics still claims the mantle of logger. It feels inextricable from their broader complaint that Jackson never did anything for their community, wasn\u2019t focused on helping the people of northern Maine when in power, unlike fellow Aroostook County native Collins.<\/p>

\u201cWhen I look at Troy and he\u2019s holding that chainsaw, that\u2019s ridiculous. He\u2019s an impostor,\u201d said Karie Kelly, who beat Jackson in the 2023 local election. Kelly compared Jackson to her husband, whom she said still spends half the week away at a logging camp after 30 years in the industry: \u201cHe doesn\u2019t represent the true men that put their blood and sweat into these woods.\u201d<\/p>\n

The split in Allagash is certainly political; Jackson\u2019s biggest fans are Democrats, his loudest critics Republicans.<\/p>\n

But it is also intensely personal. The community is full of lifelong residents who are related to one another and know everyone\u2019s business. Some people won\u2019t speak openly about Jackson and the Senate race for fear of offending friends or family on the other side.<\/p>\n

Jackson\u2019s mother, Colleen McBreairty, said she stopped checking social media because of how nasty the discussions have become.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think I understand it,\u201d she said, seated on her screened porch decorated with Jackson campaign signs. \u201cIf someone from our little town, a young man or a young lady, did well, I\u2019m happy for them. So I don\u2019t understand that logic, that mindset. I really don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hanging over everything is the recount.<\/p>\n

In March 2023, during the final stretch of his tenure in the state Senate, Jackson sought to become Allagash\u2019s elected executive, known as the first selectperson. He faced, among others, Kelly, a housewife who said she ran to process the grief of her son\u2019s death five years prior.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe town really pulled together when my son passed away and I thought, you know, just give a little back,\u201d she said in an interview.<\/p>\n

Kelly \u2014 who wore a blue \u201cLet\u2019s Go Brandon\u201d T-shirt, a derisive reference to former president Joe Biden \u2014 said there wasn\u2019t much of a campaign, other than calling friends to vote for her. She beat Jackson, 78-70.<\/p>\n

Then Jackson, citing concerns<\/a> about \u201conly one person seeing the ballots,\u201d requested a recount. It ignited a furor locally, particularly after Jackson\u2019s son raised the possibility of tampering by Begin, who oversaw the election. The final result was nearly identical: 77-71.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was very insulted. And he didn\u2019t even show up for the recount. And that was even more insulting,\u201d Kelly said. \u201cHe didn\u2019t even, like, acknowledge me. He didn\u2019t congratulate me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though she was proud of her service as first selectperson, including a Christmas party she organized for the children in town, Kelly said she felt shunned by Jackson\u2019s supporters, some of whom she had considered friends. The following year, months into her second one-year term, she resigned.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt wasn\u2019t worth the heartache,\u201d she said. \u201cI tried real hard, but the town was so split down the middle. His side hated me so bad. They hated me with a vengeance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those who were pulled into the drama, including Begin, remain offended by the incident. So do some of Jackson\u2019s supporters, who believe it has been overblown and used to paint him in an unfairly negative light.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe man had a right to ask for a recount. Oh, and that was blasphemy,\u201d said Wayne McBreairty, <\/b>who has no direct relation to Colleen. \u201cGod almighty, to think that somebody would ask for a recount in this town. God almighty, he should have been tarred and feathered.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dumond said the locals who dislike Jackson are really driven by \u201csheer jealousy\u201d of someone who achieved so much success away from Allagash. The gripes that he doesn\u2019t spend enough time in town and never did anything to help them, she said, are just an excuse.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid Susan Collins come here and sit at your table and have tea with you all the time?\u201d Dumond said. \u201cWhen we come home to the bubble, you have to make your way back in the bubble and get their trust back. You\u2019re still an outsider.\u201d<\/p>\n

Begin is aghast at that suggestion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would never be jealous of a bully,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd you can print that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Once McBreairty left the town office, Susan McBreairty, Allagash\u2019s clerk and Wayne\u2019s sister-in-law, walked over from her desk to consult with Begin about his request.<\/p>\n

Another local Jackson skeptic, she did not want to put up the congratulatory message. It could be seen as an endorsement of Jackson, she reasoned, and then they might have to do the same for Collins.<\/p>\n

McBreairty messaged a friend on Facebook: \u201ccan a town put a congratulations on the marquee sign congratulating Troy?\u201d<\/p>\n

The response came almost immediately.<\/p>\n

\u201cCan they? Yes. Should they no. This is where having a policy is important,\u201d the friend wrote, adding a winking addendum: \u201cPut it out for vote.\u201d<\/p>
