When you have a candidate with a proven track record, you are in good shape. No one has a better track record than John Patrick as he runs for his last term in the Maine Senate.

Patrick was given the 2015 Veteran of the Year Award from the American Legion for his support of Maine’s veterans in his 14 years on the Veterans Legal Affairs committee.

He received the endorsement from the Maine Conservation League for his 100 percent voting record for the environment and an endorsement from the Maine Educational Association for his support of education and Maine’s teachers. There were also awards from the AFL-CIO for his support of Maine’s working people and he has shown strong support for senior citizens.

It is clear who has the experience and know-how to get things done in the Legislature and move Maine forward.

I support John Patrick in District 18.

Don Berry, Sumner
