Macdonald cares about people

I am writing with regards to the upcoming run-off election. I suggest that anyone who voted last time and didn’t get who they wanted to take a minute to go to Ben Chin’s Web page and, while there, read his plan and then decide if they want someone like that in this figurehead position. Who […]

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 […]

That information is shielded from the public under current […]

Practice what you preach

It saddened me to read Larry Gilbert Sr.’s letter (Aug. 18) in which he wrote about how Lewiston Mayor Robert Macdonald “demonized” the Maine People’s Alliance and, in doing so, all he did was demonize Macdonald. It also leads me to question if Gilbert really understands what he claimed. Gilbert claimed that the MPA is […]

The true side of the MPA

Lewiston Mayor Robert Macdonald frequently demonizes the Maine People’s Alliance, as does Gov. Paul LePage from time to time. I want to set the record straight as to what MPA does. Any reader who reads the list below will attest to the fact the MPA cares greatly for Mainers who have worked hard all their […]
