I had the good fortune of being coached by Dan Campbell during my time on the track and field team at Edward Little High School.

Rep. Caleb Ness: Martin aims to make Maine finances efficient, beneficial
Again, election season is upon us. In 2022 I was elected to represent House District 82 in the Legislature. I was able to serve with great legislators such as Sen. Lisa Keim. Because she is term limited, we have another great candidate. Enter Joseph Martin — a man who I have seen work hard to […]
Wendy Dodge: Rep. Libby ‘has Mainers in her heart’
I am writing to support Laurel Libby’s candidacy for state representative. I am a senior citizen, with concerns about the direction that our state is headed with regard to spending.

And I know Stefanie Mahr Damien would be a strong representative for Auburn. As a state representative I understand the commitment required to effectively represent the interest […]
Kevin Murphy: Rep. Libby advocates common sense, lower taxes
When I think about who to vote for, I think about my children and (future) grandchildren, who will live with the consequences of the decisions made today. The Legislature in Augusta has lost control of its spending — do its members think we’re made of money? With a projected budget shortfall of $1 billion in […]
Mary Hughes: Rep. Libby fights for a better tomorrow
I am writing in support of Rep. Laurel Libby’s candidacy for a third term. I have known Laurel for several years and am impressed by her hard work, integrity, and her love for our city and state. My husband and I have raised our three daughters in Auburn, and several of my grandchildren live in […]
