Democrats are poised to maintain their trifecta of power between the governor’s office and both chambers in the 132nd Maine Legislature. Every race has not yet been called by The Associated Press but enough to confirm Democratic control of the Maine Senate.

Maine Democrats appear poised to retain a majority in the state House of Representatives and Senate following Tuesday's election despite gains by Republicans who flipped several seats. The preliminary results from Tuesday's legislative races showed Democrats winning at least 77 seats in the 151-member House.

Despite losing a handful of seats to Republicans, Maine Democrats appeared poised to keep control of state government, maintaining their majorities in the state Senate and House of Representatives for Gov. Janet Mills’ final two years in office.
