缅因州民主党参议员候选人特洛伊·杰克逊在与共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯的竞选最后冲刺阶段，发起了一项耗资七位数的广告攻势，将这场竞争描绘为与唐纳德·特朗普总统结盟的富裕利益集团与普通美国人之间的选择。
Maine Democratic Senate candidate Troy Jackson launched a seven-figure ad blitz in the final stretch of his race against Republican Sen. Susan Collins, casting the contest as a choice between wealthy interests aligned with President Donald Trump and everyday Americans.
据《MS NOW》首次报道，这则收官竞选广告发布之际，杰克逊在全美最具竞争力的参议院选战之一中，以极微弱优势领先柯林斯，参议院控制权悬于一线。
The closing campaign ad, first reported by MS NOW, comes as Jackson holds a razor-thin polling lead over Collins in one of the nation’s most competitive Senate races, with control of the chamber at stake.
杰克逊在广告中说：“今年11月，缅因州人将决定整个国家的走向。是为亿万富翁和特朗普服务，还是为像我们这样的普通人服务？”距离大选日还有一周，这则广告是杰克逊最后竞选信息的一部分，民主党寄望借助选民对物价上涨、医疗负担能力以及特朗普经济政策的不满来获取选票。
“This November, Mainers will decide the direction of this whole country,” Jackson said in the ad. “Is it for the billionaires and Trump, or everyday people like us?”With exactly one week until Election Day, the ad is part of Jackson’s final campaign message as Democrats seek to capitalize on voter frustration over rising costs, healthcare affordability and Trump’s economic policies.
据《MS NOW》的民调数据合作伙伴 FiftyPlusOne 的最新民调平均值显示，杰克逊以 48.9% 对 47.3% 领先柯林斯。该平均值根据民调质量和时效性加权，使杰克逊对这位共和党现任议员拥有约 2 个百分点的优势。
Jackson leads Collins 48.9% to 47.3%, according to the latest polling average from FiftyPlusOne, MS NOW’s polling data partner. The average weights polls based on their quality and recency, giving Jackson a roughly 2-point edge over the Republican incumbent.
他获得了包括前总统巴拉克·奥巴马、前副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯和加利福尼亚州众议员罗·卡纳在内的知名民主党人的背书。
He has earned endorsements from prominent Democrats, including former President Barack Obama former Vice President Kamala Harris and Rep. Ro Khanna of California.
柯林斯是五届现任参议员，本选举周期面临第二位民主党对手，此前牡蛎养殖户格雷厄姆·普拉特纳因性侵指控退选，留下杰克逊作为她的挑战者。特朗普也为柯林斯站台背书，尽管她偶尔试图与他划清界限。周五，特朗普决定取消对缅因州经济至关重要的部分加拿大商品的 50% 关税，此举部分旨在助推柯林斯连任。
Collins, a five-term incumbent, is facing her second Democratic opponent this election cycle after oysterman Graham Platner dropped out of the race amid sexual assault allegations, leaving Jackson as her challenger Trump has also intervened on Collins’ behalf, endorsing her despite occasional efforts to distance herself from him. On Friday, Trump moved to lift 50% tariffs on certain Canadian goods important to Maine’s economy, a decision aimed in part at bolstering Collins’ re-election.
杰克逊曾任缅因州参议院议长，长期担任劳工倡导者，他试图将柯林斯描绘为尽管以温和派共和党人著称，却日益与特朗普站在一起。
Jackson, a former Maine Senate president and longtime labor advocate, has sought to portray Collins as increasingly aligned with Trump despite her reputation as a moderate Republican.
“我们可以保护社会保障，让民众获得医疗保健，并让大家保留更多辛苦赚来的钱，”杰克逊说。
“We can protect Social Security, get people healthcare and keep more of what we earn,” Jackson said.
他以一段个人呼吁作结，强调自己独立于特朗普和富裕利益集团之外。
He closed with a personal appeal emphasizing his independence from Trump and wealthy interests.
“我不欠亿万富翁或特朗普任何东西。我欠缅因州人民的一切，”他说。“这才是我内心真正所想。”
“I owe nothing to the billionaires or Trump. I owe everything to the people of Maine,” he said. “That’s what’s in my heart.”
