Last June, only 284 Dixfield citizens (out of 1,700 voters) went to the polls to vote. We need to do better this year.

The municipal election is very important and could affect the future of Dixfield. If residents can’t get to the polls on June 11, they should get an absentee ballot. Every vote counts.

Norine Clarke and Malcolm Gill have both been active in Dixfield for many years. They are knowledgeable, honest, professional, positive and fair, which is why I will be supporting them.

I noticed that two of the new candidates for selectman positions weren’t even at the town meeting. I would think that attending the town meeting is important if a candidate is interested in town government.
