Alan Orcutt

Alan Orcutt is a business leader and native Mainer from Searsport running this fall to flip a seat in the Maine House. Alan grew up in a working-class family, put himself through college, and built an extensive career in Maine’s forest products industry. He‘s focused on supporting seniors, improving healthcare access, cutting wasteful spending, and standing up for small businesses and working families. Unlike this district’s current MAGA representative, Alan will be a voice for all, not just those who support him.

With the support of the DLCC, Alan has an excellent chance of flipping House District 37, and just a handful of votes could decide the outcome of November’s race.

2026 is a historic opportunity to protect and expand the Democratic majorities in the Maine House and Senate.

Democrats have held a majority in the Maine Senate since 2018 and in the House since 2012. Despite a tough year for Democrats nationwide in 2024, the DLCC’s work in Maine helped ensure the state legislature stayed blue. Since then, Democrats have built momentum with special election wins and impressive candidate recruitment across the state, and this November, we aren’t taking a single hard-won district for granted as we approach the tightly contested midterms.

The DLCC has been on the ground in Maine cycle after cycle to support state Democrats as we work to defend and expand our majorities in both chambers of the legislature. 2026 is a critical year to win competitive races and ensure Democratic majorities in the legislature can continue to deliver for the people of Maine.
