Letter: Balentine’s reaction to governor’s actions ‘reprehensible’
By the figures I can find today, there have been 31,141,034 cases of COVID-19 in the U.S. to date. There have been 564,806 deaths, for a fatality rate of 1.8%. If one-half of the U.S. population were to contract this disease that would be 2,720,500 deaths. That Mr. Balentine seems willing to sacrifice the lives […]

Letter: Forecaster should be ashamed for printing hateful letter
It is a sad day when a letter to the editor delights in death and The Forecaster prints it (“Limbaugh and Trump – one down, one to go,” March 12). The writer of the letter celebrates Rush Limbaugh’s death because s/he dislikes Rush. What a disturbing new standard! Equally disturbing: The writer closes in gleeful […]

Letter: Transgender girls deserve to participate equally in sports
LD 926, the “Act To Ban Biological Males from Participating in Women’s Sports,” is harmful to children and undermines interscholastic and intramural sports programs.

Letter: Write-in Palmer for select board in North Yarmouth
Steve Palmer is, in my opinion, the right person to serve on the select board for North Yarmouth. He is incredibly invested in the town and this is evident in the “above and beyond” efforts he expends on any committee on which he sits. His leadership on the Living Well in North Yarmouth committee is […]
