AUGUSTA, Maine — A Democratic state representative from Westbrook 
resigned Monday, reversing a previously stated intent to serve out 
his term amid allegations of sexual misconduct that he has denied.

Rep. Dillon Bates’ resignation was effective immediately, House 
Speaker Sara Gideon, D-Freeport, told legislators in a Monday email. 
Her office provided an email from Bates calling allegations against 
him “baseless and false,” but that he didn’t wish to create 
“distractions” when the Legislature returns to Augusta next week.

Gideon asked Bates to resign earlier this month after allegations 
that he had relationships with high school girls in the past decade 
were published in The Bollard, a Portland monthly newspaper.
