I write in support of Katie Boss as an at-large candidate to the Auburn City Council. The mother of a young family, Boss is aware of the unique assets that make Auburn an inviting place to live, work and raise children. After all, she and her husband chose Auburn as the place they wanted to […]

Catherine Ferrell: Democrats’ never-ending coup attempt
Can’t beat him at the ballot box? Impeach him. The Democrats’ never-ending coup attempt is costing U.S. taxpayers millions of dollars. The U.S. House of Representatives voted on July 18 for the third time not to proceed with impeachment. Even so, Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff is now holding an impeachment inquiry in search of […]
Neil and Maureen Mayo: Lee Clement has our vote
Lee Clement, a candidate for Lewiston City Council in Ward 6, is a common sense, fact-finding guy with experience and knowledge that will benefit our ward and the city of Lewiston. As a retired law enforcement and public safety executive with more than four decades of service in municipal and county government in two states […]
Ben Lounsbury: Joe Gray for mayor of Auburn
I met Joe Gray for the first time at a reception last week. I walked into a room full of people and looked for the candidate. Everybody looked friendly, and nobody looked full of himself. I was very pleasantly surprised when a nice man in comfortable clothes introduced himself as Joe Gray. It took no […]
Carole Gray: Reasons to elect Joe Gray
Here are a few reasons to vote Gray for mayor: 1) Stanwood (Joe) Gray has the patience and persistence to research any subject and base his opinion on the facts that he finds, even if it is completely different than how he felt when he began. 2) Joe pours his heart and soul into Auburn […]

Kiernan Majerus-Collins: Lewiston Democrats support Rourke
The Lewiston Democratic Party endorses Kaitlyn Rourke for City Council in Ward 7. Rourke grew up in Lewiston, graduating from Lewiston High School in 2015.

Laura Garcia: Vote for a fresh start in Auburn
Since 2016, the Auburn School Committee has failed to evaluate the superintendent or critically assess the progress of our district. It should happen annually. Meanwhile, teachers, students and parents raised the alarm. The chair and vice-chair, Bonnie Hayes, dismissed and ignored concerns. Based on what? Auburn schools were recently compared to other districts. The news […]
Jim Derocher: Tim Lajoie for Lewiston’s mayor
I am writing in support of Tim Lajoie for mayor of Lewiston. Unlike some politicians who tell you what you want to hear, then do something else, Tim is honest and up front about what he believes. He understands and believes in the people of Lewiston and will represent them well. He won’t run away […]
