Biography
Angus Stanley King Jr. (born March 31, 1944) is an American lawyer and politician who has served since 2013 as the junior United States senator from Maine. A political independent who caucuses with the Democratic Party, he served from 1995 to 2003 as the 72nd governor of Maine. Born and raised in Virginia, King moved to Maine after graduating from law school. In 1989, he founded Northeast Energy Management, Inc., a company that developed and operated electrical energy conservation projects. He won the 1994 Maine gubernatorial election as the independent candidate in a four-way race and was reelected in a landslide in 1998. As the United States' only independent governor, King enjoyed high approval ratings during his tenure. After leaving office in 2003, King returned to his business career. King won Maine's 2012 Senate election to replace the retiring Republican Olympia Snowe. He was reelected to a second term in 2018, following the state's inaugural instant-runoff voting elections, and won a third term in 2024. For committee assignment purposes, he caucuses with the Democratic Party. He is one of two independents in the Senate; the other is Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who also caucuses with the Democrats.
