Allen, Michaud split vote on second bailout bill

Maine's two Congressman continued to split their vote on a second version of a bailout.

Like the first version on Monday, U.S. Rep. Tom Allen voted for the legislation and U.S. Rep. Michael Michaud voted against it.

This version that passed is the same on that both Maine Sens. Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe voted for on Wednesday night.

As such, today's vote not likely have much impact on the Collins-Allen Senate race since both voted the same way.
