Trump Mistakenly Refers to Maine Governor as Male in Campaign Call

During a call with supporters, Trump incorrectly identified Gov. Janet Mills' gender while criticizing her immigration policies.

  • Donald Trump misidentified Maine's Democratic Governor Janet Mills as male several times during a call with supporters.
  • The call, aimed at energizing voters on the first day of early voting, included criticisms of Mills' immigration policies.
  • Trump accused Mills of planning to resettle 75,000 migrants in Maine, a claim tied to a misinterpretation of her workforce expansion plans.
  • Gov. Mills responded to Trump's comments with a retort referencing his opponent, Kamala Harris, on social media.
  • Maine holds strategic importance for Trump, as it is one of two states that divides electoral votes by congressional district.
