Mainers in the 2nd Congressional District will decide between Mike Michaud
and Jason Levesque this Nov. 2.
I could take this opportunity to assail Michaud’s voting record and emphasize how Levesque is the polar opposite, but I won’t. That’s not what’s important to me.
What’s important to me is that Jason listens to those he wants to represent. I've sent several e-mails to Michaud’s office over the years.
“Have you read the health care bill, Congressman?” I asked. As a constituent, I had a right to know — but all I got was silence … for months.
Michaud has lost his sense of accountability to the people he represents, and we deserve better.
Jason has been all over the state listening to Mainers. He wants to be accountable to us, not to the establishment in Washington far-removed from our lives.
Jason exudes a sense of responsibility for Mainers that Michaud has lost; I want that back in Washington.
Tim Lajoie, Lewiston
