Holly Lasagna is a real firecracker working for the City Council in Ward 1. She has been instrumental in securing new street lighting for West Dartmouth Street, which has brought back safety to an otherwise dark and unsafe situation. Kudos for this achievement. Holly takes everyone’s concerns and questions as her own and applies her […]

I will be supporting Sen. Susan Collins in the next Senate race. I say this with reservation only because of her support for Brett Kavanaugh. I find her support of abortion appalling. To support the execution of children days, weeks, months before a child is born is barbaric. A child’s life does not begin at […]

It’s vital that we vote our values, so I’ll be voting for Matt Leonard for City Council at-large next month. Matt is an effective advocate for economic opportunity. He devotes a significant amount of time and effort working with area businesses linking military veterans with quality careers. His experience with the local chamber of commerce […]

Being a lifelong resident of Lewiston and a past LA Metro Chamber board member, chairperson and […]

As a former city councilor I know what the job demands. Therefore, I believe Belinda Gerry is the right woman for the job. She works very hard to know and understand the issues before making a decision. She speaks to many constituents before making decisions and represents the people of Auburn’s voice, not just her […]

Mark Cayer cares about the right stuff: bringing people together and working through difficult conversations like adults; pinching pennies and carefully crafting budgets so precious tax dollars are invested wisely with an eye toward the future; focusing on important issues, such as housing quality, safe neighborhoods, economic growth and property taxes; being an honest, kind […]

I support Owen Cardwell-Copenhefer, who is running for the Lewiston School Committee at-large. Public schools were created to provide workers for all occupations — vocational, technical and college-bound students. Cardwell-Copenhefer understands that every child is different. Some have more challenges than others. He understands that every student deserves an education so they can become successful […]
