David Flood, a magazine publisher and former city councilor who is active in downtown redevelopment, ran against Fecteau, a Biddeford native who helped run marriage equality campaigns while attending college.
Fecteau finished with 493 votes, while Flood had 263. More than 12 percent of Biddeford’s 13,500 registered voters cast a ballot.
Fecteau will run against Republican Debi Davis in November.
Fecteau, 21, became involved in local politics as a high school representative to the school board.
In 2011, he was a York County field organizer for Equality Maine; the following year he was rehired as a field organizer for Mainers United for Marriage.
