Young Conservatives Join the Fight for Maine’s Future on Robert Wessels’ Gubernatorial Campaign


Augusta, ME — The Robert Wessels for Governor campaign is proud to announce the addition of two rising stars — both 19 years old — to its growing team. Their energy, fresh ideas, and unwavering commitment to conservative values mark a bold step forward for a movement focused not just on winning in 2026, but on shaping the future of Maine for decades

to come.

“Our campaign isn’t just building for Election Day — we’re building a movement,” said Wessels.

He continued “when you raise the bar and challenge people, they respond by rising to the occasion. These two young men represent the heart of what this campaign is about: new voices, bold ideas, and a willingness to stand up and fight for the future of our state. They are proving that leadership isn’t about age, it’s about vision, conviction and courage. I couldn’t be more excited to have them on board.”


The campaign’s message of personal liberty, anti-corruption, and economic renewal is resonating with a new generation of Mainers who are suffering under the oppressive economic approach of the liberals over the last 7 years. The next generation is ready to reclaim their future from the grip of bloated bureaucracy and out-of-touch policies that favor Maine’s elites and not every day hardworking Mainers.


With momentum building statewide, the Robert Wessels’ campaign is doubling down on innovation, grassroots power, and youth leadership to bring real, lasting change to Augusta. Robert Wessels launched his campaign in July of 2023 and has been touring the state, meeting people, for the last two years. Wessels’ education and business experience give him the necessary skills to turn around Maine’s faltering

economy, including sky-high electric bills and housing prices. He is also focused on reforming education to give Maine a brighter future. “This isn’t just a campaign — it’s a movement to restore common sense in Maine,” said Wessels. “And it starts with bold new voices like these two young men.”
