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.
