I support Dave Duguay to be re-elected as Oxford County commissioner. I have observed Dave in action as he has carried out his duties competently and professionally over many years. His record speaks for itself. His actions and decisions have always put the well-being of the citizens of Oxford County front and center. Dave has […]

I encourage each eligible voter to choose our own Scott Landry on Nov. 3 to continue to represent our community in state House District 113. It has been my good fortune to know Scott since we moved here to Farmington. He continues to demonstrate the character and competence of an inclusive team leader and is […]

There’s much that I like about Susan Collins. She’s a Maine native, born and raised in Caribou. When elected she will become the ranking member of the Senate Appropriations Committee and become its new chairperson. This committee is the most powerful in the U.S. Senate. With her leadership this will bode well for Maine. The […]

I’m so grateful to live in a country where I can express my thoughts. I am so grateful that President Trump signed an executive order promoting free speech and religious liberty that freed ministers and priests from retribution from the U.S. Treasury Department if they spoke out on social issues, diluting the Johnson Amendment. I […]

Well, here we are again with an election just around the corner, and Susan Collins is using campaign slogans from the year 2000, not from 2006 and up. She’s been in for 24 years — time for a change. We used to matter to her, but not anymore. She’s not the same at all since […]

Two years ago, I met Gabe Perkins and was impressed with his intelligence, leadership, and passion. These attributes make Gabe an incredible problem-solver.  Gabe is always the person sitting around the table bringing everyone together to get big things done. Gabe’s greatest asset is his optimistic outlook. He has a positivity about him that is […]

I am writing in strong support of Roland Poirier’s candidacy for Androscoggin County commissioner, District 2. Roland has a strong financial background, having served for many years as an executive for one of Maine’s credit unions. He has a deep connection to this community with a long history of service. He currently volunteers delivering Meals […]

In March, right before COVID-19 revealed the power of infectious diseases to bring our communities to a standstill, 73% of Mainers voted to support Maine’s vaccine law. Rep. Bettyann Sheats is a champion for public health who stood with the 71% of people in House District 64 when they spoke loud and clear on this […]

U.S. Rep. Jared Golden has served Mainers well over the last two years. An independent-minded, moderate Democrat, Golden makes his decisions based on what he thinks is right for our district and our country. Few voters will agree with every decision Golden has made, but all can and should respect his thoughtful, deliberate process. Golden […]

I’d like to tell people about my friend, John Patrick. An avid gardener, he enjoys sharing his crop with friends and neighbors. He watches out for elderly neighbors, helping them with chores. Family is number one to him; John and Claire’s grandchildren are the joy of their lives. Service is the focus of John’s life; […]
