I write in support of Carl Sheline for mayor of the city of Lewiston.

By virtue of his longtime residency and business operations in Lewiston, Carl understands the strengths and weaknesses of Lewiston. He knows of the challenges we face in finances, business development, schools, housing, and public services such as fire, police and pubic works, and he is well qualified to address these issues as mayor.

My top priority in supporting Carl is that I know he will treat every city resident in the same fair manner. He would treat all Lewiston residents equally, regardless of age, income, education, national origin, religion, color of skin, or political party.

I ask voters to join me in electing Carl Sheline mayor of Lewiston.

Bill Coffin, Lewiston
