I have not seen or heard why Ben Chin’s campaign funds are paid, in part, by interests outside of Lewiston and Maine. Why would anyone outside of Lewiston have an interest in helping Chin win an election?

I understand the Bates College connection. He graduated from Bates and many from there are supporting him.

I wish that the silent majority (people who did not vote in the last election) would wake up and vote for the best interest of Lewiston. If they feel that having Chin as mayor is in the best interest of Lewiston, then so be it.

I would feel better if the residents of Lewiston who have a stake in this city made that decision.
