Golden has done well in tough position

To the Editor;

A recent letter in the BDN criticized Rep. Jared Golden for not voting more often in alignment with Democratic priorities. The writer suggests finding another democrat to run in 2022 for Golden’s seat.

I am a Democrat, but disagree. First, I think Golden has done well in the difficult position of serving as a Democrat in the conservative 2nd Congressional District.

Second, a different, more liberal Democratic candidate might appeal more to Democrats, but could such a candidate win in the 2nd District? I have my doubts about that, but I think Golden can win again and hold the seat to help maintain the thin Democratic majority in the House.
