After listening to the mayoral candidates at the recent debate, I started to wonder who would be the best candidate to lead Lewiston into the future.

There are quite a few choices and they all have some positive and negative points, depending on a person’s point of view. So the big question is which one can really get the job done. Who can work with both sides of the aisle, and who can come up with new initiatives and not the same old ideas that have not worked for many years. Who can be trusted and not have a personal, political or monetary agenda.

For me, that individual is Shane Bouchard. He listens to the people of this fine city. He does not tell you one thing, just for your vote, and then turn around and do something else.

I hope others will join me in voting for Shane Bouchard.

Jim Derocher, Lewiston
