I am supporting Wayne Werts, for Maine’s House of Representatives.

When I held that seat, my motto was “neighbor serving neighbor.” I saw my job as friend who advocated for the interest of my community. Werts shares that view.

His work as a firefighter (and chief) in Auburn for 33 years is well known. He is also a small businessman who understands that private enterprise is the fulcrum that keeps Maine’s economic engines moving.

Auburn and Lewiston need a level-headed, non-partisan voice to represent us in Augusta.

I will vote to elect Wayne Wertz as state representative for District 70.
