With the race for the governor’s office just too close to call, I’m happy to say that Maine voters have a real opportunity to bring new leadership to the Blaine House.

I think we need to elect Chandler Woodcock. He is a down-to-earth guy with the leadership skills necessary to take on some tough issues that have been either ignored or glossed over by our current administration.

Woodcock will work hard to lower taxes, improve Maine’s business and job climate, improve how our state government responds to the needs of its people, and implement reforms that make health care coverage more affordable to the average Mainer.

Let’s have some real leadership in Augusta.
