Letters to the editor: Golek endorsement, election outcome’s effect on health care
Vote Cheryl Golek for state rep Over the past three years, I’ve volunteered as a driver for state Rep. Cheryl Golek (who represents Harpswell and parts of Brunswick), taking her door to door as she campaigned for her first term and now her second. Cheryl is a remarkable person.
