I want to go on record as endorsing Bruce Bickford for state Senate from District 20 — Auburn, Durham, New Gloucester and Poland. Bruce’s prior service in the Legislature and his experience in business make him an ideal candidate for the position.
As the mother of the current state senator from District 20, I believe that it is essential to elect someone to that position who is committed to lowering the tax burden for Maine families and businesses. With the ever-increasing property and income taxes, Bruce’s prior experience on the Taxation Committee demonstrates his commitment to keeping more money in our pockets.
I hope all residents of Auburn, Durham, New Gloucester and Poland join me in supporting Bruce Bickford for the state Senate in the upcoming election.
Lucinda Brakey, New Gloucester

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.
