UNE College of Arts and Sciences Dean Jeanne Hey was interviewed live on WGME after Donald Trump’s August 4, 2016 campaign rally in Portland, Maine. She was asked about his claims that he could win all four of Maine’s electoral votes. “There is very little in either Maine’s voting history of the current polling or the demographics of the state that would suggest he has a good chance of taking all four electoral votes,” Hey said.

Before coming to UNE, Hey served as the director of International Studies and professor of Political Science at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. A graduate of Bucknell University, she earned a Ph.D. in political science from The Ohio State University.
