In an April 27 Sun Journal article pertaining to further cuts to the school budget, Lewiston School Committee member Ron Potvin is quoted as saying “We are the third-largest municipality in the state.”

He should Google both Lewiston, Maine, and Bangor Maine. I did, and found that Lewiston has a population of 35,944. Then I opened the Bangor site, which showed that Bangor has a population of 31,997. Clearly, Lewiston is the second-largest city in Maine.
