It's 9:03 a.m. and we've officially been called "drama queens" for reporting that there's a hurricane on the way. We've known no peace since we took this godforsaken job.

We stand in solidarity with all Portlands against aggressors. Especially aggressors whose soccer teams lose to Sacramento.

Portland, Maine is getting some love and free advertising from Seattle's pro soccer team (at the expense of "the second Portland"). Featuring #PortlandME's own @mayorstrim and @mesofunblog: boston.com/sports/soccer/

The day wouldn't be complete without wishing our boys, , good luck in their game against Sporting KC this evening. We're working on having a watch party for a Timbers game in the near future. Anybody know a bar in the Portland (Maine) area that wants to host? #RCTID

Just read multiple comments on a post to Facebook complaining they can't read the story without a subscription and the column is about workers being paid fairly for their labor.

A three-month investigation by the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram reveals that white nationalist groups are increasing their presence in Maine. Ignoring them would be a mistake, experts say.

Morning, Twitter. Comes now a day dedicated to a simple ideal: Every voice is heard. Simple, but not easy. So to every voter, to all the organizers and volunteers, to all the workers and counters, to all the journalists covering it: Thank you. Your work matters. Election Day.

Morning, Twitter. Going to be a different kind of thread today. We try to keep this at least a little light even as we get you the news of what happened, which has certainly been dark much of the time. But we don't have any jokes today and they'd seem glib and wrong, anyway.

Good morning to you, too. Get your own schtick. This one is already taken.

Fake News media is all over this story bc it fits Leftist narrative: tougher immigration enforcement is bad. But rapes, robberies & murders of US citizens by illegals get little to no coverage by Fake News outlets like the PPH. "Enemy of the people" fits, so wear it. #mepolitics twitter.com/PPHEricRussell…

OK, we have to vent. We actually have a FB commenter mad at us because we — sometimes — duplicate the headline for the chatter, and that makes it hard for them to make an "informed" comment on the story. Actually reading the story did not occur to them. We'll be in the bar.
