Paul LePage (R), Mike Michaud (D), and Eliot Cutler (I) discussed the state's economy during a debate on October 8, 2014. LePage said that the state's budget and repayments to state hospitals were examples of his first-term successes. He also argued that Democratic legislators had not delivered on past promises.
Michaud countered that he was the only candidate on stage who had worked with Democrats and Republicans during his time in the United States House of Representatives. He also claimed that LePage was argumentative with state legislators and that this was a reason to replace him in the governor's office. Cutler argued that voters had an opportunity to reject what he called failed policies from Republican and Democratic governors by casting ballots for his independent candidacy.
