I agree completely with the letter from Joseph Glass (Sept. 9). Jared Golden is a far better candidate than Bruce Poliquin. Beverly Peterson, Auburn

Writer's views were offensive
This is only the second time I have ever written a letter to the editor of the Sun Journal, but I just can’t take Steve Turner’s outlook on what Jesus would do if he came down from the cross (letter, Sept. 8). I find his “Jesus” views offensive to the current medical care that is […]

Country needs to be united
Recently, I went with my wife to the Labor Day union picnic. We enjoyed good food, good weather and listened to our representatives and labor leaders. They all had good, inspiring things to say. I would like to suggest that people focus more on speaking in a more positive way as representatives. We live in […]

I support Melissa Simones Landry
On Nov. 6, I will be supporting Melissa Simones Landry to serve as the next County Commissioner for District 2 in Lewiston. As the current District 2 Commissioner, I know she will represent residents well on the board. I have had the pleasure of being her friend for more than a decade. Her integrity, honesty, […]

For years, America has had many movements to bring the people closer to equity. People today are standing on the shoulders of others who fought and died so that citizens could have the “unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” The nomination of Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court would […]

Media bias against conservatives
The Aug. 30 edition of the Sun Journal was a good example of why people have such low regard for the media. The newspaper’s bias against conservative Republicans is appalling. The Sun Journal featured two negative articles on the front page (“Poliquin proposal just scary … ” and “LePage urged to apologize …”), as well […]

Shame on the Sun Journal
It is just wrong to purposely shame men accused of engaging prostitutes by printing their mug shots (Sept. 7 and 8). That’s a Class C offense at its worst, with a $1,000 fine. They were already shamed enough with the arrest and the aftermath in itself. Printing their mug shots was a self-appointed moralistic judgment […]

Share code enforcement costs
Charging owners of rental housing in Lewiston for each apartment, just to fund code enforcement, would be a very discriminating charge. Isn’t the code enforcement division there for all the people of Lewiston? Why should owners and occupants of rental housing have to pay more toward that department — more than owner-occupied housing? At a […]
