‘Yes’ on Question 3
Roland Rancourt Jr.’s letter (Oct. 6) regarding Question 3 sounds like it was written by the gun lobby. He rails against outsiders being involved, but ignores the enormous amount of money flowing into every state from the gun lobby, threatening legislators against voting for any measure of gun safety. Rancourt doesn’t want to change “something […]

Clinton above the law
Ever notice how often we see homeless veterans, but never homeless immigrants? That is shamefully unacceptable. What happened to “Charity begins at home”? If Hillary Clinton is elected president, she supports allowing thousands of immigrants/refugees into the U.S. If voters are dissatisfied with the way this country is going, they should give “the Donald” a […]

Sheats will provide leadership
It is time for voters in Maine House District 64 to send Bettyann Sheats to Augusta to work for the needs of their community. For years, I have watched her advocate in the Legislature for protection for the health of children. She was a strong citizen leader in the successful passage of the Kid-Safe Products […]

What about Trump’s taxes?
The viewers of FOX News (or should I say faux “news”) must realize that the millions of dollars spent on the Benghazi investigations could not prove that a stand down order was given by Hillary Clinton. This is fact, not opinion. The 25-year witch hunt against the Clintons has not produced much in the way […]

He is creative, looks at the facts on both sides of the question, is sensitive […]

He would represent the district with common-sense government and community […]

I have seen her campaign in Buckfield and Hebron, two towns we share, and I have heard only good things about her and what she wants to do […]

He is proud of his record of fighting for veterans, senior citizens and working men and women. He truly cares about the issues facing the citizens of District 18 and Maine. He will continue […]

U.S. progressing toward socialism
As socialism inches its way into this country, people should beware of false prophets who promise things that seem unthinkable, unbelievable or sound too good to be true. They are trying to make their goal seem desirable and acceptable. Socialism must not be allowed to happen. Norman Thomas of the socialist party made the statement […]
