Auburn has clear choices

In the upcoming election, Auburn has some clear choices to make. Auburn will cease to exist if consolidated with Lewiston. Not only will the city of Auburn be erased from existence, its neighborhood schools such as East Auburn Elementary will almost certainly be eradicated in favor of Lewiston’s big box school way of doing things.

Support for Levesque

I have had the pleasure to recruit men and women who are exiting the military for jobs here in Maine. During the interview process, I realize how the military trains people to have conviction, passion and how to just get the job done. When I heard about Army veteran Jason Levesque running for mayor of […]

'Yes' to Levesque; 'no' to merger

I support Jason Levesque in his race for mayor of Auburn. He is a successful businessman, an Army veteran and wants to be Auburn’s next mayor, not the final mayor. I will be voting “no” on the consolidation of Auburn into Lewiston, and “yes” for Jason Levesque. Bob Stone, Auburn

Levesque knows how to lead

I have known Jason Levesque for 23 years. An Edward Little alumnus, Levesque built his business in Auburn from nothing. He knows what it is like to struggle, but despite his busy life, I see him and his family at local events. He believes in keeping the cities of Lewiston and Auburn and their unique […]

Levesque a job creator

I am a proud Auburn Democrat, particularly so in this era of the divider-in-chief. Recently, I had an opportunity to listen to both of Auburn’s candidates for mayor as they expressed their visions as to what they hope to accomplish as mayor. Auburn voters should look past the familiarity of the names of the candidates […]
