Husband. Dad. Lifelong Mainer. Running to bring accountability back to Congress and make life more affordable for working-class Mainers.
Proud to earn the backing of The Sierra Club. As a lifelong outdoorsman, I know what's at stake in protecting Maine's public lands, from Acadia to Katahdin Woods and Waters. Paul LePage sides with industry over our environment. I'll always choose Maine's land first. #ME02 #Dunlap4Congress
LePage looked seniors in Maine in the eye and called their Social Security checks "welfare." Then when they got mad, he claimed he never said it. Pick one, Paul. #ME02
Spent the weekend at the Wilton parade, house parties, and the Northern Maine Fair—because earning this job means showing up for every corner of this district. When I’m in Washington, I’ll always show up for Mainers. Paul LePage won’t even show up to campaign for the job. Too busy in Florida.
Proud to have the backing of MSEA-SEIU Local 1989 — the workers who keep Maine running. I've always had their backs, and I always will.
NEW Election Forecast: This race is a toss-up — and it'll decide whether working families keep getting shafted by people like Paul LePage, or finally get the relief they've been waiting for. We built this the right way: knocking doors, listening, showing up. Now let's finish it. Are you in?
Paul LePage spent his career kicking Mainers when they're down — six vetoes of Medicaid expansion to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. In Washington he'll gut Medicaid and Medicare for billionaire tax cheats. He doesn't even live here — send him to Florida for good.
If Paul LePage wasn't living in Florida full-time, maybe it'd be easier to get him to answer questions. Instead he sends his lackeys to speak for him and dodges anything he doesn't like. Maine deserves a congressman who's here, answering to you — not one in Florida answering to billionaires.
Paul LePage sees Medicare and Medicaid as a piggy bank for his billionaire donors. He cheered the bill gutting Medicaid for another billionaire tax cut — "the greatest thing that can happen to the Maine people." I'll fight anyone who wants to raid these programs. LePage would open the door.
Endorsed by MoveOn — powered by people, not corporate money. That's how we beat Paul LePage and put working families first. This campaign belongs to all of us.
Paul LePage is a trickle-down Republican. He'd gut health care for working families to fund a tax cut for tax-cheating billionaires. He called the Big Beautiful Bill "the greatest thing that can happen to the Maine people." The only thing trickling down? Closed hospitals.
Congrats to @troyjackson207.bsky.social I’ve worked alongside him for years, and I know he’s a fighter — I can’t wait to fight alongside him in Washington. Susan Collins and Paul LePage have carried water for those billionaires for decades. November’s coming for both of them.
50% tariffs on Canada are going to wreck working families. Paul LePage says he knows tariffs will "hurt" — but he's "all for them" anyway. Easy to say from a golf community in Florida. He's not the one paying for it — working families are.
New poll: we're leading Paul LePage in Maine's 2nd District. Voters know LePage — taking away healthcare, calling Social Security "welfare," then moving to Florida and leaving the wreckage behind. This November, we're gonna make him Florida's problem — for good.
I've been a Maine sportsman my whole life. Paul LePage would hand our public land to corporations and developers. I'm running for Congress to keep our woods and waters in the hands of the people they belong to.
Nothing says Maine like the Moxie Festival parade. 🧡🥤 Great to be in Lisbon Falls today. This campaign is about showing up — street corners, town halls, farmers markets, and yes, amazing parades like this one. I’ll always be available for Mainers.
Paul LePage said Social Security was "welfare, pure and simple." A slap in the face to every Maine senior who worked their whole career for the benefit they were promised. I'll fight to protect these programs. Paul LePage will work to end them.
Honored to have the endorsement of CWA Local 1400. I'm running to fight for working families. Proud to have union brothers and sisters in this fight with us.
That’s a wrap on a great 4th of July weekend at the Eastport and Machias parades! 🇺🇸 But this campaign is just getting started. Same message in every corner of this district: Affordable healthcare. Taxing billionaires who don’t pay their fair share. Working families over special interests.
Happy 4th and happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸 Marched in the Jay parade yesterday — great seeing so many of you out. I’m proud to be an American, and proud to fight for the America we deserve: working families over special interests, officials who answer to the people, not their party.
Paul LePage is a shill for corporations and the wealthy. Don't take my word for it — he's defending the Big Beautiful Bill: raises your healthcare costs to hand billionaires a tax cut. Working families lose. Corporations win. That's Paul LePage in a nutshell.
Today's results tell us that people want real change and a better future. I thank the other Democratic candidates for mounting exceptional campaigns and raising important issues across the state.
On the road across ME-02 today — voted this morning, talked to neighbors, thanked voters at the polls. Polls close at 8 PM. If you haven't yet — go vote. Bring a friend.
Four hours until polls close. Thank you, Maine, for helping us build this campaign. We're in this because we want a better future for everyone. That's what I'm going to fight for.
My name is Matt Dunlap. Born and raised on a farm in Bar Harbor. I've worked as a cook, a bartender, a fur trapper. I took on Trump and won. I chaired Bernie's Maine campaign. I've always fought for the people of this state. Polls close at 8 PM. I humbly ask for your vote.
The final push. Spent our last few day at the doors. Thank you to everyone who opened their door today. Tomorrow is the day we’ve worked for. Get out and VOTE — and remind everyone you know to do the same. See you at the polls. 🗳️
Final couple days and we’re out in full force. Knocking doors in Lewiston, making calls, marching in the Hallowell pride parade, and meeting voters in Bangor. We’re two days out and not slowing down. Help us finish strong! 🚪
Bit by bit. Bill by bill. Working families had their economic well-being taken from them. It was taken by billionaires and the corporate lobbyists who buy politicians. I'm running to put working families at the center of our economy again. #MEPolitics
Great to be home in Bar Harbor. 🏡 We’re going to win this race — and it’s because of Every. Single. One of you. Thank you for showing up. #MEPolitics
People like Ro Khanna are with us because they want real change — not corporate lobbyists picking Maine's candidate. Honored to have Ro up here this GOTV weekend. Sign up to volunteer with us: www.mobilize.us/dunlapforcon...
