I write in support of Mark Cayer for mayor of Lewiston. I like to refer to myself as a liberal Republican, or a Republicrat. There are some Democratic ideas I like and there are Republican ideas I like. What I don’t like is how Republicans and Democrats go at one another to push their agendas. […]

Cayer the choice for Lewiston
I served four years on the Lewiston City Council with Mark Cayer. We did not always agree with each other but, because of his willingness to listen and find common ground, we usually found a solution. Cayer values everyone’s opinions. I came to realize the importance of compromise because of him. Because of his leadership […]

It is seldom that such a fine individual as Mark Cayer has been a candidate for the office of mayor of Lewiston. Cayer’s vast experience has admirably represented Lewiston’s Ward 6. In addition […]

Cayer committed to Lewiston
In November, I will be voting for Mark Cayer. Lewiston needs a mayor both committed to and concerned for all of the people of this city. As city council chairperson, two things stand out: Cayer worked hard to bring opposing sides together, and he recognized the need to pay off and/or reduce out-of-control debt. Lewiston […]

Mark Cayer has the experience
Change is a popular topic for politicians running for office. It is vague. It has a nice jingle to it. It is easy to talk about. Lewiston is a city that has experienced a lot of change, both recently and historically. What Lewiston needs now is not change for the sake of change. Mark Cayer […]

Cayer stands in the middle
Some of Lewiston’s candidates for mayor lean far to the left; some lean far to the right. The mayoral race should be non-partisan. I believe only one candidate stands solidly in the middle — independent Mark Cayer. Cayer’s campaign slogan is “Your city, my city, our city.” The inclusiveness of his slogan makes me confident […]

Correcting inaccurate statement
On Sept. 8, a letter to the editor in support of my run for mayor of the city of Lewiston provided inaccurate information. The letter indicated that I was a former Lewiston Police officer. Although, I was a police officer for 20 years and served at several departments, most of my full-time career, which started […]
