I thank voters for their support as Lewiston city councilor from Ward 2.

Now, those who know me, know I don’t pull punches. I also believe a few people think I make sense at least every so often. Members of the last council have chosen not to run again. There was a reason. If people asked them, I believe they would hear a common theme.

It is time to retire the present mayor. I could give you a hundred reasons but not in 250 words or less. I have been “on the inside” and it wasn’t pretty.

If some Lewiston voters aren’t sure who to support for mayor, my advice is to vote for Mark Paradis.

Nelson M.J. Peters, Lewiston
