AUGUSTA. Maine (WGAN) Shawn Moody gathering enough votes to clinch the republican gubernatorial primaries.

Tuesday night moody addressed the crowd, saying he’ll fight for all Mainers.

“We’re going to go to work for the whole state. North, South, East, and West. It’s about all of us. It’s about Mainers. And we’re going to take our state back.”

Moody stayed above the 50% threshold all night with Garret Mason coming in 2nd.
