Lewiston residents are fortunate to have such a strong slate of local Democratic candidates running for the Maine Legislature this year.

I have worked closely with Nate Libby, Jim Handy, Heidi Brooks, Kristen Cloutier and Margaret Craven and know they approach their public service with intelligence, compassion and integrity.They work respectfully with others who hold different points of view, while remaining fearless and highly effective in their advocacy for the people of Lewiston.

I urge Lewiston voters to join me in electing Nate Libby, Heidi Brooks, Jim Handy, Kristen Cloutier and Margaret Craven on Nov. 6.

Peggy Rotundo, Lewiston
