About Cory

Cory Raymond

Cory Raymond is a Rockport resident who knows firsthand what it means to build a life on Maine's midcoast — raising a family, working hard, and watching government make that harder every year. He's not a career politician. He's a neighbor who got tired of watching Augusta drift further from the values and priorities of the people who actually live and work in District 41, and decided to do something about it. Cory ran for this seat in 2024 because he believed the people of Rockport and Camden deserved a representative who would fight to keep taxes low, protect individual freedoms, and stop the regulatory overreach that squeezes small businesses and working families. He came close, and the issues that drove him to run haven't gone away — they've gotten worse. In 2026, he's back with more determination, deeper community roots, and a clear agenda for what Midcoast Maine actually needs. What sets Cory apart is simple: he listens. He's not reading from a party script — he's talking to his neighbors at the hardware store, at the boat launch, and at the kitchen table. He understands that the challenges facing District 41 — rising property taxes, unaffordable energy costs, and an economy that's pricing out working families — require real solutions, not Augusta talking points. Cory Raymond is ready to be the voice this district deserves.

Where Cory Stands

Key Issues

Property Taxes & Housing Affordability

Rising property taxes are pushing long-time residents and working families out of Rockport and across the midcoast. Cory believes homeowners deserve relief, not more excuses from Augusta. He will fight for real property tax relief and policies that make housing attainable again for Maine families.

Energy Costs & Maine's Economy

Electricity rates in Maine are among the highest in the nation, and they're crushing households and small businesses alike. Cory opposes costly mandates that drive up energy prices without delivering results for ordinary Mainers. He supports an all-of-the-above energy strategy that prioritizes affordability and reliability.

Protecting Small Businesses

Maine's small businesses are the backbone of the midcoast economy, and they are being buried under taxes, regulations, and mandates that make it harder to hire, grow, and survive. Cory will stand up for the owners and workers who drive District 41's economy.
