(NEWS CENTER) -- There were three interesting developments in the world of Maine politics this week:

     A Maine legislator who's been a backer of a proposed East/West highway is now asking that the process be slowed down a bit, after hearing lots of concerns from his constituents about where the highway will go.

   Also, two more Maine politicians send a letter to U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius about Governor Paul LePage's plan to cut Medicaid enrollment in Maine.

  And, there's still a question whether GOP delegates from Maine will be able to take the floor at the upcoming Republican National Convention in Tampa.

   We talk with NEWS CENTER political analysts Phil Harriman and Ethan Strimling about it all.
