Irene Coady: Lasagne will fight for her constituents
I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for Ward 1 Councilor Holly Lasagna in November. Here’s why: she is a good listener, gives thoughtful consideration to each issue, and works hard for her district. In our neighborhood several residents felt unsafe at night due to a lack of streetlights. For years we had been […]
Janet Kinney: Make use of tidal power
Gov. Janet Mills, legislators, business people and engineers should be looking to utilize the Atlantic Ocean tides for renewable energy. The tides have been dependable for as long as I can remember. Where are the engineers? This nation needs their help. Janet Kinney, Jay
Sue Charron: Mark Cayer for mayor
Mark is passionate about the city of Lewiston. His experience as a city councilor, council president and school committee chairperson makes him the best choice for the mayor of Lewiston. I had the opportunity, as Lewiston’s social services director, to witness Mark in action. He treats staff and residents with respect and he listens intently […]
Camille Parrish: Vote for Holly Lasagna, Auburn City Council
I have been attending the Auburn City Council meetings in the past year with some regularity. Holly Lasagna’s votes reflect consideration for her Ward 1 constituents, as well as the best interests of all Auburn citizens. She clearly takes the time to determine sound reasons for her votes. I have been thoroughly impressed with her […]

Joseph Widell: Voting for Holly Lasagna

She has been instrumental in securing new street lighting for West Dartmouth Street, which has brought back safety to an otherwise dark and unsafe situation. Kudos for this achievement. Holly takes everyone’s concerns and questions as her own and applies her […]
Jim Benson: Support for Sen. Susan Collins
I will be supporting Sen. Susan Collins in the next Senate race. I say this with reservation only because of her support for Brett Kavanaugh. I find her support of abortion appalling. To support the execution of children days, weeks, months before a child is born is barbaric. A child’s life does not begin at […]
Phillip Whipple: Matt Leonard for council-at-large
It’s vital that we vote our values, so I’ll be voting for Matt Leonard for City Council at-large next month. Matt is an effective advocate for economic opportunity. He devotes a significant amount of time and effort working with area businesses linking military veterans with quality careers. His experience with the local chamber of commerce […]
