If you want another four years of the same, then vote for either Republican Paul LePage or independent Eliot Cutler for governor, and LePage will be elected again by the minority. If you do not want more of the same, then vote for Democrat Mike Michaud.

For those who really want Cutler? Please do not vote for him, because doing so will re-elect LePage. Cutler should throw his support behind Michaud and work with him, instead of being the spoiler who hands LePage a victory again.

And one more thing: Whatever happened to the initiative for a second ballot voting for the governor if no candidate gets more than half the vote in the first round? I could support a governor who gets the majority, but not one who gets a third of the votes!
