 05/17/2012 When Maine Republican Senate President Kevin Raye announced his bid for the 2nd Congressional District seat earlier this year, he positioned himself for a rematch. He and incumbent Democratic Rep. Mike Michaud battled each other 10 years ago for the same seat in a hotly contested race. Raye, who is term limited out of the Maine Senate, insists that the landscape is different this time, and believes the 2nd District is ready to elect a Republican. But first, he has to defeat fellow GOP hopeful Blaine Richardson in the June primary.
