Apparently, U.S. Rep. Jared Golden’s detractors have nothing positive to say about Rep. Austin Theriault, so their campaign consists of negative attacks on Jared. I will never understand how folks who believe themselves to be honest and upright can stand in front of a camera and recite, not innuendo, not spin, not even of half-truths, […]

Have people seen the TikTok video about the man who ordered his exact Walmart shopping cart of 45 items from two years ago, and was dumbfounded when he saw the price tag with almost 400% increase? Even if people haven’t, I’m sure they can share in his astonishment. Everywhere we look costs are rising, especially […]

I am writing to endorse Dan Campbell in his campaign for state representative. My family and many others in Auburn have known Dan for many years, and he always impressed me as an excellent coach and mentor. It didn’t matter if one’s child was an elite athlete or a beginner. A man of strong faith, […]

I think some landlords are taking advantage of tenants who have less money and are having to pay more for rents. I have a friend who is paying $1,500 a month with nothing included. She is elderly and depends on Social Security to keep a roof over her head. Landlords should do more to help […]

I just finished watching the debate between Congressman Jared Golden and race car driver Rep. Austin Theriault. This was the first I have seen of Theriault, and I have to say I am disappointed. He seems like a nice guy, but one who is not ready for the big leagues. I looked into his resume […]

Having worked at the local paper mills in Jay and Rumford for over 40 years, I know the importance of elected officials who truly support the working class. That’s why I hope my fellow residents of House District 76 support Tamara Hoke for state representative. As library director at the Jay-Niles Memorial Library for 18 […]

I write in support of Sen. Peggy Rotundo. She truly cares about the people of Lewiston. Peggy supports Maine schools. She ensured the legally required 55% state funding of public education, with Lewiston receiving the highest amount. Additionally, she provided the opportunity for high school graduates from the classes of 2024 and 2025 to receive […]

We need representation in Augusta that will actually listen to their constituents and stay on course to be their voice. Rep. Laurel Libby has a proven track record of voting to represent the people of our district and, by extension, the people of the state of Maine. At times it has even meant voting against […]

I support Congressman Jared Golden for his strong position on expanding health care coverage. As a senior citizen I am acutely aware of the need for access to affordable, high-quality care. It is not unusual for seniors to visit one’s primary care physician more frequently. Ailments, injuries, sickness and chronic health conditions require medical intervention […]

I hope people join me in voting to reelect Kristen Cloutier to the Maine House of Representatives. Kristen is a consistent, wise and experienced leader. She not only listens deeply to our community, but was elected to be assistant majority leader by her peers. To me, this speaks volumes about the way that she leads; […]
