缅因州民主党参议员候选人特洛伊·杰克逊是第五代伐木工,曾在竞选活动中宣扬自己的工人阶级资历,如今却因一则病毒式传播的广告遭到两党抨击,批评人士称这则广告是不识时务的讨好作秀。
“如果共和党人斥资4600万美元投放这类电视广告,谁会被这种手段说服?”广告中有人问道,此时杰克逊正喝着珍珠奶茶。
杰克逊随后环顾四周并露出微笑,接着说道“那1%的富人”,与此同时屏幕上出现了他的对手——参议员苏珊·柯林斯和特斯拉首席执行官埃隆·马斯克的照片。
广告配文为“喝珍珠奶茶”,旁边配有珍珠奶茶和瞪大双眼的表情符号。

这则广告在X平台的帖子遭到两党用户的广泛嘲讽,浏览量已超过200万次。
“缅因州是全国中位年龄最老的选民群体,”民主党策略师史蒂夫·沙尔在X平台上发帖称。“我知道我不是华盛顿的策略师,但我真的、真的看不懂这波操作。”
“特洛伊·杰克逊本应胜选,但这类视频毫无益处,还令人尴尬,”自由派网红哈里·西森在X平台上发帖称。“请换个思路吧!别再拍珍珠奶茶广告了!”
“把马利·麦克莫罗的竞选搞得一败涂地的那帮人,现在又在教你拍这种蠢东西,”左翼播客主持人凯尔·库林斯基在X平台上发帖称。“走上前去,说出真相,发自内心地为经济正义发声,反对战争,别再搞这些狗屁套路了。拜托,老兄,你比这聪明多了。”

“一边拼命想要塑造工人阶级硬汉形象,一边让Z世代女性来运营你的社交账号,就像她们运营自己的交友主页一样,这有点滑稽,”共和党传播专员马特·惠特洛克在X平台上发帖称。
“……”美国全国共和党参议员委员会(NRSC)南部地区新闻秘书赖利·理查森在X平台上发帖称。
“诡异,”共和党传播专员史蒂夫·格斯特在X平台上发帖称。“看起来特洛伊·杰克逊这是第一次喝珍珠奶茶。”

最新民调显示,在倾向民主党缅因州这场关乎美国参议院权力平衡的关键对决中,柯林斯领先其民主党挑战者。
正在竞选参议院第六个六年任期的柯林斯在可能投票的选民中支持率为49%,民主党候选人、前缅因州参议院议长特洛伊·杰克逊为46%,另有5%的选民尚未决定。这一民调由《纽约时报》/锡耶纳学院开展,柯林斯3个百分点的领先优势处于调查误差范围内。
该民调于9月15日至22日进行,是自杰克逊于7月底接替前参议院候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳以来,首个显示柯林斯领先杰克逊的民调。
普拉特纳是一名退伍军人兼牡蛎养殖户,在6月的民主党参议院初选中以压倒性优势获胜。但一个月后,因一名前女友曝出的爆炸性强奸指控报道,普拉特纳退选。普拉特纳否认了报道内容,但还是退出了竞选。在他退选时,多数民调显示柯林斯仅小幅落后于普拉特纳。
杰克逊曾于今年早些时候与普拉特纳一同参选州长但失败,之后他在民主党特别提名大会上胜出,填补了该党空缺的参议院候选人资格。
就在这份民调发布之际,柯林斯对ProPublica的一则报道进行了反驳,该报道称联邦调查局曾试图发起一项“付费为援”调查,对柯林斯等人展开审查。该调查后来被撤销,没有任何与柯林斯相关的人员被起诉。
柯林斯斥责该报道是“令人反感的”、由民主党策划的“党派式抹黑”。
杰克逊则在社交媒体上声称“苏珊·柯林斯公然腐败”。
在这项新民调中,尽管55%的受访者表示希望民主党在明年掌控参议院,43%的受访者希望共和党保留多数席位,但柯林斯仍领先杰克逊。

Maine Dem Sen candidate’s ‘working class’ cred shredded by both parties when internet sees latest ‘cringey’ ad
September 30, 2026 5:00am EDT / Fox News
Democrats and Republicans mocked the ad featuring Jackson sipping boba tea while referencing Susan Collins and Elon Musk

Maine Democratic Senate candidate Troy Jackson, a fifth-generation logger who has touted his working-class bonafides on the campaign trail, is facing backlash from both sides of the aisle over a viral ad that critics are labeling as tone-deaf pandering.
“If Republicans spend $46 million on these TV ads, who’s gunna be convinced by that?” Jackson is asked in the ad as he sips a boba tea.
Jackson then looks around and smiles before saying “the 1%ers” as a photo of his opponent, Sen. Susan Collins, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk are shown on the screen.
The ad’s caption reads “sips boba tea” alongside a boba and wide-eyed emoji.

The ad’s post on X was widely mocked by Democrats and Republicans and has been viewed over 2 million times.
“Maine is the oldest median age electorate in the nation,” Democratic strategist Steve Schale posted on X. “I know I’m not a DC strategist but I really, really don’t get it.”
“Troy Jackson needs to win but videos like this are unhelpful and cringey,” liberal influencer Harry Sisson posted on X. “Please change it up! No boba tea!”
“The same people that ran Mallory McMorrow’s campaign into the ground are telling you to do this goofy s—,” left-wing podcaster Kyle Kulinski posted on X.”Just get out there and tell the truth and speak from the heart for economic justice and against war and stop with all this bulls—. C’mon man. You’re smarter than this.”

“It’s a little bit funny to be desperately trying to position as working class masculine male and have gen-z women run your socials like they would run their own personals,” Republican communicator Matt Whitlock posted on X.
“…,” National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Southern regional press secretary Reilly Richardson posted on X.
” Weird,” GOP communicator Steve Guest posted on X. “Looks like the first time that Troy Jackson has ever had boba.”
“Boba tea! Just like regular people! ” journalist Chris Cillizza posted on X.
“Want to remind you that Democrats were openly proud of how masculine their Maine campaign was going to be and then they ran this ad,” former Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh posted on X.

A recent poll indicates Collins is ahead of her Democratic challenger in a crucial Senate showdown in blue-leaning Maine that could determine the balance of power in the U.S. Senate.
Collins, who is running for a sixth six-year term in the Senate, stands at 49% support among likely voters, with former Maine Senate President Troy Jackson, the Democratic nominee, at 46%, with 5% undecided in the New York Times/Siena poll. Collins’ three-point edge is within the survey’s margin of error.
The survey, which was conducted Sept. 15–22, is one of the first to indicate Collins ahead of Jackson since he replaced former Senate nominee Graham Platner in late July.
Platner, a combat veteran and oyster farmer, won the June Democratic Senate primary in a landslide. But a month later he dropped out following an explosive report containing an allegation of rape from a woman he previously dated. Platner denied the report but stepped aside. Collins slightly trailed Platner in most polling at the time he ended his campaign.
Jackson, who campaigned alongside Platner earlier this year as he unsuccessfully ran for governor, won a special nominating convention to fill the party’s vacant Senate nomination.
The poll release came as Collins pushed back against a report by ProPublica that the FBI sought to launch a pay-to-play investigation examining Collins and others. The investigation was later dropped and no one working for Collins was charged.
Collins ripped the report as “offensive” and a “partisan hit job” orchestrated by Democrats.
Jackson took to social media to claim that “Susan Collins is blatantly corrupt.”
Collins’ advantage over Jackson in the new survey comes even as 55% of those questioned said they prefer Democrats to control the Senate next year, with 43% saying they’d like the GOP to retain the majority.
