When you work beside someone for four years, you get to know that person pretty well. I have seen first hand how hard Steve Morgan works. His wife, children and friends mean everything to him. He will try his best to make sure that his family and the citizens of Lewiston have a better place […]
Lewiston mayoral election
Morgan has community’s respect
I have known Steve Morgan for numerous years and interacted with him on the Lewiston Planning Board and City Council when he was president. He is easy to talk to and he listens. Lewiston hasn’t been a business-friendly city and I think Morgan can help change that. He also will battle the never-ending welfare problem […]
Morgan would serve Lewiston well
With regard to the Lewiston mayoral race, I would like to say a word on behalf of Steve Morgan, one of the three “other candidates,” as they are so often referred to. He has been a member of the Lewiston Planning Board, the Railroad Committee and the City Council, where he served as president. A […]
Chin supports diverse population
Luke Jensen (with whom I mostly do not agree) honorably and publicly denounced the signs about mayoral candidate Ben Chin for their racism. In contrast, Lewiston Mayor Robert Macdonald repudiated them because people would think he was responsible. No comment about the content or tone of the signs themselves. That doesn’t tell us what Macdonald […]
Lewiston does not need Ben Chin
What Lewiston does not need is a socialist, liberal mayor. Lewiston has a good mayor now. If it works, leave it alone. The city does not need someone liberal who will try to sell his agenda to the hard-working taxpayers of Lewiston. Ben Chin wants to sell bond issues. Wake up, people. Someone has to […]
Chin a catalyst for change
Ben Chin’s plan to renew Lewiston is not just good for Lewiston, it is a plan that can and will help veterans who call Lewiston home. In the next few weeks, we will begin to see unwavering support of patriotism and pride to those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Lewiston is home […]
City cannot support more immigrants
For some time now, I was leaning toward a change in the Lewiston mayoral race to favor Ben Chin. He is young and seems like he would do a great job. But, recently, I have heard from many that he is a supporter of immigrants and would welcome more of them to Lewiston. Can Lewiston […]
L. Mayes: He’s proud of America
When it comes to Larry Gilbert Sr. for mayor, we’ve been there and done that. We need a chief executive in Lewiston, not a photo op “leader.” Gilbert’s weekly column in the Twin City Times mostly amounted to apology tours which held America in a less than favorable light. Another term would be another series […]
D. DiPietro: Best candidate for the position
I urge all taxpaying Lewiston residents to go to the polls on Nov. 5 and vote for the best individual to fill the position of Lewiston’s mayor. In my opinion, Bob Macdonald is the best choice and that is why I am voting for him in the election. He has proven himself and stands ready […]
