Andrew Ian Dodge believes that a growing movement in Maine politics has been without a voice in Washington for too long. Dodge is one of six candidates who'd like to replace retiring Republican Sen.

Nor does he believe that it should prevent gay people from being married, or citizens from using marijuana or hallucinogenic mushrooms.
