Thibodeau (born July 16, 1966) is an American politician and businessman from Maine. He was a Republican State Senator from Maine's 23rd District, representing all of Waldo County. He graduated from Hampden Academy in 1984.[1] He was first elected to the Maine State Senate in 2010 after serving from 2006 to 2010 as state representative. He also served on the Board of Selectman of Winterport.[1] CareerIn 2006, Thibodeau defeated Winterport Charter Commissioner Donna Gilbert after Rep. Jeffrey Kaelin withdrew. He ran as a Clean Elections candidate.[2] In 2008, Thibodeau, running as an incumbent, was narrowly re-elected over Seth Yentes after spending nearly $10,000 of his own money and over $13,000 overall on his re-election campaign.[2] An outspoken critic of same-sex marriage in Maine, Thibodeau voted against a 2009 bill to legalize it, saying "Let’s be honest. This isn’t about civil rights. It’s about a social agenda that tears at the very fabric of our society".[3] In 2010, Thibodeau sought District 23 in the Maine Senate, where he sought to replace fellow Republican Carol Weston. Running as a clean elections candidate, defeated fellow state representative and former House Majority Leader John Piotti with 54% of the vote in the two-way race.[2][4] In 2012, he successfully sought re-election. Following the election which featured Republicans losing control of both the State Senate and House of Representatives, Thibodeau was named Republican minority leader of the Maine Senate.[5] Thibodeau announced on December 3, 2013, that he was considering entering the 2014 Second District congressional race.[6] Upon his party obtaining the majority in the November 4, 2014 legislative elections, Thibodeau was chosen to be Senate President when the new legislative session begins on December 3, 2014.[7] Thibodeau was reelected Senate President after his party held their majority, albeit a two seat loss to the Democrats.[8] On October 17, 2017 Thibodeau announced his run for the 2018 Maine gubernatorial election.[9] On March 26, 2018, it was announced that Thibodeau had withdrawn from the 2018 Maine Gubernatorial Election.[10] References1. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=yAE1AAAAIBAJ&sjid=OE8KAAAAIBAJ&pg=6172,2925418&dq=michael-thibodeau+maine&hl=en|title=Vote 2006|date=October 26, 2006|work=Bangor Daily News|page=B6|accessdate=21 October 2011}} {{s-start}}{{s-off}}{{s-bef|before=Justin Alfond}}{{s-ttl|title=President of the Maine Senate|years=2014–present}}{{s-inc}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Thibodeau, Michael}}{{Maine-politician-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.followthemoney.org/database/uniquecandidate.phtml?uc=8430|title=Follow the Money|accessdate=21 October 2011}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://bangordailynews.com/2009/05/05/politics/maine-house-passes-gay-marriage-bill/|title=Maine House passes gay marriage bill|last=Harrison|first=Judy|date=May 5, 2009|work=Bangor Daily News|accessdate=21 October 2011}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://bangordailynews.com/2010/11/04/politics/waldo-county-voters-sought-change/|title=Waldo County voters sought change|last=Curtis|first=Abigail|date=November 4, 2010|work=Bangor Daily News|accessdate=21 October 2011}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.mpbn.net/News/MPBNNews/tabid/1159/ctl/ViewItem/mid/3799/ItemId/24623/Default.aspx|title=Maine Senators-Elect Pick Floor Leaders|publisher=Maine Public Broadcasting Network|accessdate=10 November 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|last=Cousins |first=Christopher |url=http://stateandcapitol.bangordailynews.com/2013/12/03/thibodeau-considering-run-for-2nd-congressional-district-seat/#.Up6hqid40m4|title=Thibodeau considering run for 2nd Congressional District seat|publisher=Bangordailynews.com |date=2013-12-03 |accessdate=2013-12-03}} 7. ^{{cite web|last=Moretto |first=Mario |url=http://bangordailynews.com/2014/11/07/politics/state-house/republican-lawmakers-install-mike-thibodeau-as-senate-president/|title=Republican lawmakers pick Thibodeau for Senate president, restore Fredette as House leader|publisher=Bangordailynews.com |date=2014-11-07 |accessdate=2014-11-07}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://m.argus-press.com/mobile/news/state_news/article_caf0bbc2-3f91-5cab-b174-4f92ec3616c7.html|title=Maine Democrats, GOP pick new Senate leaders|work=Argus-Press|date=November 15, 2016|accessdate=December 10, 2016}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://bangordailynews.com/2017/10/17/news/senate-president-mike-thibodeau-jumps-into-2018-race-for-governor/|title=Maine Senate President Mike Thibodeau jumps into 2018 race for governor|work=Bangordailynews.com|date=October 17, 2017|accessdate=October 17, 2017}} 10. ^{{cite web |last1=Shepherd |first1=Michael |title=Maine Senate President Mike Thibodeau quits GOP race to succeed LePage |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181115190756/https://bangordailynews.com/2018/03/26/politics/maine-senate-president-mike-thibodeau-quits-gop-race-to-succeed-lepage/ |website=Bangor Daily News |accessdate=15 November 2018}} 8 : 1966 births|21st-century American politicians|Businesspeople from Maine|Living people|Maine Republicans|Members of the Maine House of Representatives|Minority Leaders of the Maine Senate|People from Winterport, Maine |
