I will vote for John Patrick in the Senate race. If we work for a living and draw a paycheck, then we are part of labor. He is part of labor.

I have worked with him in a paper mill; I’ve spent some time with him in Augusta and watched him speak out for labor throughout the years.

His is a loud and well-informed voice for working people and small business. He will tell a person where he stands on an issue and why.

He will be true to his word, to his constituents and to labor. If we support John Patrick, he will be there to support us when the other side of the aisle tries to cut labor, the middle class and issues that are near and dear to working people, retirees and sportsmen.
