Since moving to Maine, we’ve watched the governor and some legislators use a battering ram on anyone who didn’t agree with them. But we’ve also been pleasantly surprised to see the dedication and commitment of our town’s state legislators.

We’ve talked with both Senate District 24 Sen. Everett “Brownie” Carson, D-Brunswick, and House District 51 Rep. Joyce “Jay” McCreight, D-Harpswell, and they have shown us how committed they are to making our corner of this beautiful state great. Both are down-to-earth, Clean Election candidates who go out of their way to find consensus with their peers across the aisle.

In this age of extreme egos and partisanship, it’s refreshing to live in a part of Maine that has legislators who care about “us” and focus on the well-being of all Mainers.
