(The Center Square) — Maine's Attorney General Aaron Frey is breaking with other Democrats in opposing a proposed expansion of ranked choice voting in state elections, calling on the state's highest court to reject the "unconstitutional" plan.

Democratic lawmakers who control the state House of Representatives and the Senate have asked the Maine Supreme Judicial Court to rule on the legality of recently approved legislation that allows ranked-choice voting in gubernatorial and legislative elections.
