We still haven't resolved it [Real ID], and you've been gone for four years.

Overstated

Why this verdict View evidenceHide evidence
Why we checked itAsserts that Maine's Real ID compliance remains unresolved and that the opponent has been out of office for four years — both specific, verifiable facts.
What we foundBoth sub-claims in LePage's statement are inaccurate or overstated: Real ID enforcement was implemented on May 7, 2025 — over a year before the debate — and Dunlap left the Secretary of State's office approximately five and a half years before the debate, not four.
