I support Eliot Cutler for governor. He can best help Maine’s small businesses connect both nationally and internationally. His innovative plans, “Maine Energy Resources” and “Maine Wellness,” will deliver the relief Maine’s businesses need to compete anywhere.

He will reduce wasteful spending in Augusta under his “Maine Change Plan” while initiating innovative ways of governing.

He will be the strong governor our state needs to handle the pressure of these challenging times.

His humble beginnings in Bangor are similar to so many here in L-A. He knows that in order for Maine to work, it will need to start with people and businesses right here in Central Maine.

As a lifelong Democrat, I stand with many Republicans and Democrats in supporting independent Eliot Cutler because we know he will govern from the center.

Mayor Larry Gilbert Jr., Lewiston
