Bruce Bryant is running for state Senate in District 19. I couldn’t be more impressed.
In addition to representing issues important to me — our public elementary and secondary schools, women’s reproductive rights, economic development in Maine’s forgotten rural areas — he’s a hard worker.
When this campaign is over, he will have knocked on the doors of nearly 90% of his constituents in Senate District 19, which is made up of 28 towns and unorganized territories in Oxford County and 15 towns and unorganized territories in Franklin County. When someone calls him — he can almost picture their house.
Perhaps most important is his experience. In my opinion, term limits turn our government over to lobbyists while newbies get their feet under them. Thanks to five years in the Maine House followed by eight years in the Maine Senate, from 1997-2010, Bruce would hit the ground running.
We can’t go wrong by electing him to the Maine Senate.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
