Take it from a Vietnam veteran who’s lived in this state for over 70 years: we haven’t had a representative who can deliver for Maine veterans like Jared Golden in a long time. He takes the time to listen to his fellow veterans, understands the issues we’re dealing with because he’s one of us, and […]

“We the People by the People for the People” was the basis for the forming of our country. We must elect people who will help the people. Rep. Margaret Craven supports a government that is transparent and works to that end. She is responsive to her constituents and answers their questions and concerns truthfully. She […]

I urge Lewiston voters to send Peggy Rotundo back to the Maine Senate in November. She chaired the Appropriations Committee in the past and consistently found ways to bring differing parties together on important issues. For years, Peggy worked at the Harward Center at Bates College. The center gets students involved with agencies and nonprofits, […]

The brief excerpts on the NBC Today show, taken from President Biden’s speech the evening of Sept. 1, was enough for me. The anger, the raised fist and rants about attacks on democracy was over the top, not to mention the red backdrop more mindful of a speech from the Kremlin. No administration prior to […]

I found it ironic that Deborah Diltz complained about “insults and attacks” toward Donald Trump (“Letter’s insults, attacks on Trump ‘unworthy of publication’,” Aug. 28). Is Ms. Diltz unaware that Trump routinely dishes out insults (“Crooked Hillary,” “Crazy Bernie,” calling women “dogs”) and constantly attacks others: (media is “the enemy of the people,” female Congress […]

I support Rep. Margaret Craven wholeheartedly to continue as Lewiston’s state representative. Margaret has served in the Maine Legislature for several years representing constituents like me. She has made remarkable progress passing bills that help Mainers. Under the leadership of Gov. Janet Mills, Margaret has been working day and night. I have found Margaret to […]

In U.S. Rep. Jared Golden’s TV ad he is at a table ripping apart a small lobster, bragging about fighting against President Biden’s out-of-touch policies. If he thinks this makes him look like a hero of the people, it only proves how out of touch he is with Maine people. I am happy that he […]

I will be supporting and voting for Laurel Libby for re-election for state representative for House District 90 (Minot and part of Auburn). As our state representative, Laurel Libby has worked tirelessly in Augusta for Auburn and Minot residents and all Maine people. She deeply cares for our state and would continue to fight for […]

“Greed is good.” According to his 1992 Edward Little High School yearbook photo, this quotation by Ivan Boesky is Auburn Mayor Jason Levesque’s favorite. It explains a lot. Greed is defined as “intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth or power.” Auburn government released FB Environmental’s revised findings regarding development in the Lake Auburn […]

I write in support of Peggy Rotundo for the Maine State Senate. I have known Peggy for more than 40 years, and I watched with admiration her years of work in the Legislature. One of her defining qualities is absolute and consistent integrity, and an unwavering desire to use the powers of government to help […]
