Peter Fromuth believes that what makes Yarmouth so special is its vibrant community, strong schools and abundant natural beauty. But he also thinks Yarmouth could be better: more civility and collaboration, more programming and assistance for seniors, more sustainable energy, more revenue to offset property taxes. He is a forward thinking, highly qualified candidate who […]

I am writing to support Democrat Steve Moriarty’s return to the Legislature in House District 45. I have known Steve for nearly 30 years as a colleague, parent, runner and a very conscientious, hard-working citizen of the town of Cumberland. I am confident that Steve will maintain the thoughtful, common sensical approach that Dale Denno […]

The Maine Department of Health and Human Services has a new motto: Really Sorry About All Those Dead Kids. If that sentence makes you cringe, that was intended. Get used to it, because there’s more cringe-worthy stuff coming up. According to data that reporters pried out of the department, in the past two years, 26 […]

I am endorsing Valentine Sheldon for Falmouth Town Council. For three years, our neighborhoods have been in turmoil due to the misguided zoning changes enacted in 2016. Valentine has been the only candidate who has consistently and forcefully spoken out against the damage these changes have inflicted on his neighborhood. As councilor, he will work […]

I strongly support Republican Kevin Hughes for state representative in House District 45. He has the right temperament for these trying times in Maine, exemplified by our Legislature’s divisiveness. To reduce that, he has made it very clear he will engage with legislators holding opposing views. Successful legislators learn to listen, determining where common ground […]

I encourage you to vote for the respectful, community-centered and committed leadership of Rob Waeldner and Randy Bates in the Yarmouth Town Council election. As long-term residents, with unblemished previous Town Council experience, they have proved their integrity in taking care of town business and being sincere and fair representatives of all views of Yarmouth […]

It’s that time of year again. The prom photos have come and gone, awards ceremonies are wrapping up, and caps and gowns are on display. It’s graduation time. Here’s the worst part of the situation: I have nothing to say about it that hasn’t already been said for ages. Every single thought in my head […]

Valentine Sheldon has worked tirelessly to encourage public awareness of critically important concerns having long range impact on the character and growth of Falmouth. Val ardently believes in responsive, open, citizen-sensitive governance. He was born in Maine, he went to local schools, and his understanding of the town’s needs runs deep. He will be as […]

As a 25-year resident, I can tell you Falmouth is a great place to call home. To maintain and enhance the special character of Falmouth, we need a responsive councilor who listens to the taxpayers. We need zoning rules that protect the interests and property values of the current residents. We don’t want to become […]

Please be sure to vote for Democrat Steve Moriarty for state representative in House District 45 on June 11. Steve served us well as our state rep just five years ago and he is the right person for the job again. For nearly 30 years, Steve has served in town government and is one of […]
