When I reached out to District 25 state Sen. Cathy Breen, D-Falmouth, to share our family’s story and ask for help, she jumped into action. Our daughter was born deaf due to congenital cytomegalovirus, the most common viral cause of birth defects and developmental disabilities. Despite how common and preventable CMV is, only 9 percent […]

Democrat Victoria Morales is the right choice for House District 33 in South Portland. An innovative small business owner and devoted mother, Victoria is deeply committed to advocating for the needs of our community. I first met Victoria when we were both learning to become effective candidates in the Emerge Maine program. Within moments of […]

I’ve never written a letter to the editor before, but given the extreme lack of bipartisanship in government, I must applaud my state representative, Democrat Joyce “Jay” McCreight, who works with everyone – regardless of political party – to make Maine a better place. What impresses me the most about Jay is her willingness to listen. She […]

The Falmouth Memorial Library is a high-volume resource. It has welcomed and been enjoyed by many townspeople. The library services every age group and every economic background. Its patrons are as diverse as our town. The last referendum was supported by a majority of the townspeople, illustrating the community involvement that has been present since […]

As a senator she has worked hard to increase financial resources for public education without increasing income tax. She voted to repeal the burdensome state mandate for […]

Rep. Joyce “Jay” McCreight, D-Harpswell, is running for her third term in House District 51 (Harpswell, West Bath and East Brunswick). Jay is hardworking and well-informed and I am proud to have her as my representative. Because she listens so well, she is keenly aware of what Mainers need and has been instrumental in sponsoring […]

We are excited to share our bipartisan support of independent Dennis Welsh for state representative in House District 47. In our own individual capacities, we have worked with Dennis for a local business and also collaborated with him on local issues. Dennis is a bridge builder, a communicator, a listener, and an honest problem solver. […]

I am a small business owner raising a family. I have questioned if our representation in Augusta has adequately met the needs of Scarborough residents. Perhaps it is time for a change. I’m impressed with Dr. Linda Sanborn. Linda is dually focused on strengthening Maine’s public schools, as well as addressing the needs of seniors. […]
