MEDEXAs you may know, earlier this year the legislature passed a bill to expand MaineCare coverage using federal funds in the health care law. Supporters said the bill would provide health coverage to roughly 60,000 low-income Maine residents. Governor LePage vetoed the measure because he said Maine could neither afford its existing MaineCare program, nor count on federal funding. Looking towards the November election, does this veto make you more or less likely to vote for Governor LePage or does this not make much difference in your vote?
