Who's her strongest opponent?
ON UPDATE: Multiple people have pointed me to:
Dr. Cat London
who has already begun her campaign. Unfortunately, she's currently under discipline by a Maine medical board.

AUGUSTA A doctor who plans to challenge Republican Sen. Susan Collins in 2020 has been reprimanded by the Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine.
The board announced its entering into a consent decree with Dr. Cathleen London that places her on probation and prohibits her from prescribing the opioid addiction treatment drug methadone. Shes also required to pay $3,000 in investigation costs.
London, who has a practice in Milbridge, faced nine complaints from 2016 and 2017 of violating patient confidentiality, inappropriate interactions with patients, and inappropriate prescribing of controlled substances, among others.
Her attorney didnt immediately respond to a message.
