Democrat Scott Hamann, 35, is running unopposed for a third term in the House District 32 seat representing South Portland.

Hamann is a project manager at the Good Shepherd Food Bank. He has a bachelor’s degree in media and theater arts from Montana State University and a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Southern Maine.

Hamann is seeking re-election because he wants to continue fighting for economic and social justice, adequate and predictable education funding and health care access for all, according to a Portland Press Herald survey.

“Too often in Augusta I’ve seen the voices of low-income Mainers and vulnerable populations drowned out by lobbyists and corporate interests,” Hamann said. “It is particularly disturbing to witness the sharpest increase of ‘extreme child poverty’ in the country at the same time that the LePage administration has cut services and withheld funding to support Maine children in need.”
