As a father and grandfather, I’m concerned with parents’ rights and the effort to wrestle stewardship of our children away from us. Many schools now try to teach our children what to think, not how to think. For example, philosophies based on the color of a person’s skin without regard to the content of their […]

Rep. Margaret Craven is running for re-election to the Maine Legislature in Lewison’s new House District 93, which runs from Sabattus to the north, west of Central. She deserves to be re-elected. Margaret has devoted much of her life to addressing the needs of her constituents — young children, child safety, and child abuse and […]

Dr. Greg Bianconi would make a great commissioner for Androscoggin County District 4 (Lisbon, Sabattus, Wales). Greg’s dedication to our communities is obvious from his 35 years as a family physician in Lisbon, caring for several generations of local families. He also served as a member of the Lisbon Advisory Board for six years and […]

Bruce Poliquin did a great job as state treasurer and is prepared to be our congressman again. The Democrats have broadcast many falsehoods about Bruce. Bruce is a square shooter. Maine deserves a man favoring sensible government programs, not a Democratic Party pawn. When Maine voters vote for a Democrat candidate for Congress they are […]

I worked with Neil McLean at the Somerset County District Attorney’s Office for a number of years. During Neil’s career as a prosecutor, he has handled a wide range of cases from juvenile misdemeanors to adult felonies, from conducting hearings in traffic court to trying felony cases in superior court. Neil is hard working, conscientious […]

I am writing this letter in support of Robert “Bob” McCarthy, who is running for state representative of District 93 in Lewiston. I have known Bob for over 35 years and can truly say he is a man who is honest, hard-working and sincere. His commitment to his family, friends and community is unquestionable. Bob […]

Who did people expect U.S. Sen. Angus King to endorse? He’s a Democrat to the bone, so there is no way he’d back Paul LePage for governor. King has made millions off the Maine people who seem to worship the ground he walks on. Time for him to dry up and blow away. LePage would […]

I support William Coffin for Androscoggin County commissioner. I’ve known Bill for several years. We met through the Lewiston Democratic Committee and the Androscoggin Democratic Committee. Bill is a graduate of Lewiston High School and the University of Southern Maine, obtaining a bachelor of science in vocational technology magna cum laude. He is also a […]

I have one wish. It’s not unattainable. That wish is that all the people running for political office would take even a fraction of the money they spend on their political ads and political signs, and use it to build housing for the homeless. Do our politicians really believe that the endless political ads and […]

As a mom and lifelong resident of Oxford County, I’m supporting Neil McLean for district attorney for Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford counties. Neil has many years of experience as a prosecutor. I know firsthand his commitment to keeping our community safe. I also know he is a father of four school-age children. I’ve heard him […]
