Good, we do not need one concerned moderate Republican to replace another concerned moderate Republican. We had Marie Perez and Henry Cuellar voting against the stopgap bill but this guy just won't. He never votes on important bills alongside democrats. It's not because of his district, it's because he is a Sinema.
In fairness, Jared Golden is sort of the mirror image of Susan Collins. She is said to never cross the aisle to vote with the Democrats when it matters (her vote against Obamacare being the notable exception); likewise, Golden almost never crosses the aisle to vote with Republicans when it matters.
Moderate Democratic Rep. Jared Golden, a former Collins staffer, is highly unlikely to challenge her.

He would be a big improvement on Collins.
I disagree. He would be worse, because we would not even be able to remove him like Sinema because of Ranked choice.
Sinema would be a big improvement on Collins, too! Pay attention to the totality of their voting.
