Is it my imagination, or is the only money available regarding consumer-owned electricity Question 3 to taint its passage? We are now getting this advice from all kinds of people right now, not just the electric companies. I’m just wondering as to just how good would this be for us, given we’re not hearing from the […]

Lewiston needs an intelligent, pragmatic mayor with vision, proven success in leadership and business, and the ability to work professionally and productively with the entire City Council, as our next mayor. Jon Connor is that person. We have suffered two years of mayoral selfies and reports of lunches, along with a surreal denial of the […]

I am a lifelong resident of the Lewiston-Auburn area. I have known Matthew D. Agren for more than 25 years. He is a conscientious worker, a thoughtful man, a capable and innovative thinker and a self-educated student of history. I believe he would do well on the School Committee.

Auburn City Council Ward 5 is overdue for new representation. I recently met Stefanie Mahr-Damien while she was canvassing my neighborhood. I was happy to see someone who is passionate, motivated and willing to step up to the plate for Ward 5. Stefanie is a candidate who would work to bring back an efficient recycling […]

I wonder if Americans feel it, the slight shift in the air, from the MAGA control of our country. MAGA is hanging off the edge off the cliff by its fingernails, swinging in the breeze of dysfunction and lies. The rejection of Donald Trump’s puppet U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan was a tsunami.
