I am writing to thank the Portland Press Herald for its fair and unbiased reporting about the election.

I want to point out that Sen. Susan Collins received little attention for crossing the aisle to help important legislation, on gun control and electoral reform.

I’m a lifelong Democrat, born in Maine. We need more reporting on the many steps Sen. Collins takes to compromise and work with Democrats. Let’s be fair and thank her for being one of the only Republican members of Congress willing to do everything she can to make our government work.

We need more of this, and less of the divisiveness threatening our republic in a troubled time. Let’s thank Sen. Collins and recognize what she has done to make our world better.
