I have known Joe Martin of Rumford for years. Joe and his girlfriend Trisha run a store in Andover. Their place is well known for great food and great conversation.
Quietly and without great recognition, Joe has worked tirelessly as chair of the Oxford County Republican Party for well over 10 years. His success has been noted statewide.
Now, Joe has put his hat in the ring for the state Senate. His experience worldwide as a businessman, innovator and CEO are legendary. He is a great leader, at the right time, offering his services to us.
We have an obligation to say “yes” for ourselves and our children. Joe lives conservative values, and he would make certain Maine people always come first.
I urge everyone to vote for Joe and get their friends and neighbors to do the same.
Kevin Scott, Andover
