On Nov. 7, voters will choose who will represent them in government. We need people who are committed to change the path of the Maine economy. We need to vote for people who will change the way Maine government handles healthcare, government spending and our business climate.

I will be voting for Mike Beaulieu to be our state representative. He will bring his knowledge of American history and government to Augusta to work for us. He taught U.S. history and government at Lewiston High School for more than 30 years. He knows what decisions past Legislatures have made to put the state in its current situation, and he knows how to get it back on track. We need to let him do it.

I hope Beaulieu will be the next state representative for House District 68, but he can’t begin to work without votes on Nov. 7.
