Bobby CharlesBobby Charles

Bobby grew up in Wayne, Maine, where his mother was a public school teacher. From her—and from the World War II veterans who mentored him—he learned about sacrifice, service, and what it means to be part of something bigger than yourself. Those values carried him from Maranacook High School to Dartmouth, Oxford, and Columbia Law—not to leave Maine behind, but to return better prepared to serve it. He has spent his life protecting our nation and serving our communities. Bobby’s public service began in the Reagan White House. He led global counter-narcotics operations, worked with allies to dismantle global drug cartels, and helped secure America’s borders from lethal threats. Bobby Charles is committed to building a safer, stronger Maine. As governor, he will fight to reduce crime, enforce common-sense policies on homelessness, cut burdensome taxes, and hold government accountable. He believes in protecting Maine’s communities, improving education, and ensuring economic opportunities for every hardworking citizen. Bobby Charles will always put Maine families first.
