ABOUT THIS SERIES
Taxpayer dollars flow through the state on a daily basis. As such, our newsroom periodically examines and tracks political and governmental spending occurring in Maine — from how much money a candidate is receiving (and where that money comes from) to how taxpayer dollars are being used (or misused) by government officials.
