It has been a great honor to represent the people of this district for the past six years. In difficult times of partisan gridlock, I have been able to work with people from both sides of the aisle on our mutual concerns, especially related to the marine environment. There is important work underway, including a bill on “micro-grids” that helps communities achieve lower power bills and greater self-sufficiency; and a bill I plan to introduce that will be a comprehensive approach to tackling the issue of plastics entering the marine environment. I look forward to continuing my work on behalf of this region.

Michael “Mick” Devin lives in Newcastle. His two sons were raised here and attended Lincoln Academy. Mick is a Navy veteran, and a Marine Biologist, recently retired from many years at the Darling Marine Center. This experience has served him well in his three successful terms on the legislature.

He sits on the Marine Resources Committee, where he has had great success in furthering the interests of our fishing communities, and protecting the marine resources they depend on. He has also enjoyed the opportunity to be a strong advocate for veterans issues, and has been awarded the American Legion’s Legislator of the Year multiple times

I am running as a Clean Elections candidate and have already reached my small donation goal with your help. Many thanks to all who gave $5!

I can’t accept further campaign donations, but would welcome your volunteer help!

  • “Mick has a strong record of diplomatically supporting issues that are critically important to our region, and he also has an established track record of obtaining positive results.”

    -Michelle Henkin, Bristol

  • “As a Republican, I disagree with Democrat Devin on some issues, but on balance and especially with respect to the health of the natural systems of the Gulf of Maine and the coastal economies dependent on the productivity of these waters, Mick Devin is my preferred candidate for the District 90 House seat.”

    -Mal Carey, Newscastle

  • “Mick is paying attention, he’s listening to his constituents, and he is championing and supporting solutions-based bills to tackle important problems that are facing not only his own community, but the entire state.”

    -Melissa Gates, Cushing

  • “As a Navy veteran, marine scientist, and father, his experience, knowledge, and compassion have served us well.”

    -Katie Huntington, Newscastle

  • “…a great listener; a calm and collegial negotiator with Republicans, some of whom are personal friends; and a legislator committed to values all Mainers can get behind.”

    -Ru Monsell, Damariscotta

  • “Mick Devin is a scientist and someone who thinks rationally about how to solve problems in this district and in this state. He is one of the hardest-working representatives in the Maine Legislature and is an asset to our communities.”

    -John and Ellen Dickens, Newcastle

  • “Mick Devin is a thoughtful, knowledgeable state representative working hard for our good health, a safe and productive environment, gainful employment, and peaceful retirement. My experience—in health care, aquaculture, retail work, PTO administration, and as a public school substitute teacher—makes me very appreciative of Mick’s energetic dedication to introducing and passing legislation that benefits all of us."

    -Katie Huntington, Newcastle
