I am supporting Mary-Beth Taylor for the Maine House District 87, representing Mechanic Falls and Poland. Mary-Beth has served Poland well for four years on the Board of Selectpersons. She has been a fine leader who shows respect and consideration for all. I hope all the voters of Mechanic Falls and Poland to join me […]

Peggy Rotundo is easily the right choice for who to send to Augusta this November. She has a long record of working hard to get things done for everyone, and her fiscal skills are unmatched. Her previous time in office shows us that she knows how to help people while still being fiscally responsible. Just […]

I am submitting this letter in support of my daughter-in-law Kristen Cloutier, who is running for re-election to the State House representing District 94. I think it is important for people to know who they are voting for, and Kristen takes her responsibility as an elected official very seriously. She has served in various offices, […]

Norm Gellatly’s recent letter in these pages (“Could the DOJ put Trump out of commission?,” Aug. 13) seems to me to be unworthy of publication in the Sun Journal or any other legitimate news source. It is a ubiquitous list of insults and personal attacks against Donald Trump, the like of which we can all […]

Building a larger, stronger workforce has been a longtime priority to ensure Maine’s economic success. It has never been more important than today, as we face a tightening labor pool. Innovation needs to take center stage in directing the jobs of the future. While many job training and career pathways exist, it is exciting that […]

Like many, we’ve watched prices rise — everything goes up out-of-sight, failed policies are continued, and nothing changes. Some legislators don’t listen, others don’t care. This November, let’s elect common sense legislators and reverse course. If positive change is […]

The Aug. 16 meeting of the Lewiston City Council, as shown on the city’s YouTube channel (3:29:51), has comments by Councilor Bob McCarthy indicating the Aug. 14 Sun Journal article, “Auburn-Lewiston airport construction leaves pilots and management at odds,” was inaccurate and the paper didn’t do its research. After discussing the article with all those […]

Definition of real: actually existing as a thing or occurring in fact, not imagined or supposed, tangible, factual, historical and finally, truthful. Definition of false: not according […]

I write in enthusiastic support of Neil McLean, district attorney candidate for Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford counties. I’ve spent many years working with victims/survivors of crime as a victim witness advocate, and I’ve had the privilege of working on many cases with Neil. He has the unique ability to speak to victims with sensitivity because […]
