Gina Melaragno has been a passionate advocate for House District 62 in her first term as state representative. She has spoken for folks whose lives are unfamiliar to most other legislators — Mainers who work two and three jobs just to keep a roof over their head; middle-class workers who face high insurance premiums and […]

Stevens will work hard
I am happy to be supporting Melissa May Stevens to represent myself and my neighbors in District 59 in the state Legislature. I looked up to Peggy Rotundo and her hard work and dedication in Augusta, and I want a strong woman like Stevens to follow in her path. Stevens is fearless and committed to […]

Keep Melaragno working for us
I am writing to support Gina Melaragno for state representative from District 62. I want her to keep fighting for real economic development that benefits all Mainers. That includes raising the minimum wage in Maine — a cause she has been working for diligently both locally and in the Legislature from Day 1 of her […]

The Trump-Nixon connection
Donald Trump is much like Richard Nixon. There are many comparisons between their behavior — Trump’s constant argumentative distractions, how he avoids any clear policies and discussions. They set up another smoke screen. Also, the Nixon tapes showed a similar use of crude, paranoid language. Nixon covered up for his criminal Watergate break-in. Trump faces […]

No question went unanswered. He has been walking throughout his district, personally knocking on doors to let the people know his platform. He supports all residents. Working […]

Stevens understands real-life issues
As Peggy Rotundo retires this year, I hope that the voters in District 59 will vote for Melissa Stevens on June 14 to represent them. Just as Rotundo was, I have known Stevens to be a fierce advocate for the people in the city of Lewiston, particularly for the most vulnerable residents. Like me, Stevens […]

Sheats supports community health
Auburn and Minot need better leadership in Augusta. I support Bettyann Sheats as a Democrat for Maine House seat, District 64. Sheats has a history of working for child and infant health issues and will bring a family-based viewpoint on community issues to Augusta. Androscoggin County ranks less than the average for the state of […]

Fuller has leadership experience
In the Sun Journal on Sunday, June 5, Melissa Stevens responded that class and gender are differences between her and her opponent. What does that mean? And did she really use the age card? Is she insinuating that Roger Fuller is too old to be an effective state representative? Wow. The presidential candidates are older […]
