On June 14, there is an important Democratic primary which will determine who will be the District Attorney for Cumberland County. I will be voting for Jacqueline Sartoris.
While words are important, I tend to prefer candidates who walk the walk instead of just talk the talk. Jackie Sartoris was there advocating for measures to address climate change when she was a town counselor. She was there actively advocating with us when we tried to convince Senator Collins that Kavanaugh posed a genuine threat to women’s reproductive health and freedoms. And she’s been there day in and day out in the trenches as a prosecutor, trying to address issues of domestic violence and drug addiction despite the woeful inadequacies of resources available.
Jackie walks the walk. She has my vote. Vote on June 14.
