Sue Mackey Andrews vs. Paul Davis. I have known Sue Mackey Andrews for many years. She is a hard worker, and I believe she cares deeply for the people of our community. Unfortunately, she was in favor of the gun bill that Bloomberg tried to ram through the last election

I have lived in Piscataquis County for 28 years. In this length of time I have seen the county regress, not prosper. Guilford, the town I live in, is not in good shape. Almost half the houses are vacant or in need of repair.

The Democrats have sworn an oath and probably just plain swore ... a lot, in light of the economic rebirth of the state of Maine and its even brighter future on the horizon. They have vowed to undo all of the policies of Gov. LePage and return Maine to Democrat policies, which are debt, poverty, and unemployment. Janet Mills has the plan to obstruct any forward motion this state has toward independence and turn us back to the perpetual state of dependency.

Let's just be honest here. Politics has now so infected the entire Brett Kavanaugh nomination debate that it is virtually impossible for anyone on either side of the debate to listen to anyone else.

The truth will come out about Judge Brett Kavanaugh. And I mean the whole truth — about the way he has treated women in the past and about his views on critical issues likely to come before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Despite working 12-hour shifts at the paper mill six days a week, for four years I would regularly drive the 45 miles to my elderly mother’s house to prepare her meals, serving some fresh and freezing the rest. I don’t regret a mile or minute of it, but there’s no doubt her having outside help would have made life easier.

As a summer resident of Bowerbank, yet registered to vote in Hermon, I feel so strongly that Sue Mackey Andrews is the right person to be the senator of District 4 and I wanted to share my knowledge about her work.

Sue Mackey Andrews is running for State Senate District 4 from the town that I was born in, Dover-Foxcroft. She is offering her personal sacrifice to get to know the needs and concerns of people across her district.

Friends of Moosehead, good morning from the shores of beautiful Moosehead Lake as dawn pierces the night sky my eyes penetrate through the treetops in search of the sun not to be seen on this overcast morning as clouds engulf America’s Crown Jewel.

It’s time for a change in leadership. I’ve walked with Sue Mackey Andrews as she’s knocked on doors in Brownville. She listens to people’s concerns because she cares and wants to help. Sue will work tirelessly for us as she’s always done. Please give her a chance to become our next state senator. You won’t be sorry.

Northern Piscataquis County is highly dependent on the Charles A. Dean Memorial Hospital in Greenville, and U.S. Sen. Angus King has made sure it remains well-funded and operational. In 2017, he voted against the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, thus ensuring that the hospital -- our county’s fifth largest employer -- continues to receive the federal support it needs to carry on strong.

When Maine voters elected Angus King as governor in 1995 they also elected a new Republican majority to the Maine Senate. I heard state Sen. Beverly Bustin — who was, at the time, a senate Democrat leader -- tell a group of people gathered in Maine’s State House that the new GOP senate majority was an aberration, a flaw in the electoral process. The election that year was clearly a case of mistaken identity.

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Janet Mills this week released an action plan for the Maine economy. The plan includes 19 action items, specific recommendations for improving the state’s economy and spreading prosperity into rural areas.

For nearly a year now, we've been living in a different era. That era is the "me too" era, where women across this country are standing up and making their voices heard, taking some power back after generations of silent abuse that women all over America have experienced.

I know, it has been a long time since my last Senior Matters column, years in fact. Sorry. And much has changed, including I am now a retired “senior” myself, The Commons at Central Hall has opened and people are enjoying her beautiful spaces for dancing and quilting, connecting and thriving.

All genealogists rely on indexes to locate family members in databases such as the census. It saves browsing through hundreds, if not thousands, of names or documents.

My husband and other veterans have sacrificed so much to uphold the values of our Constitution. By failing to demand all the information regarding Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, I strongly believe U.S. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine is failing to follow through on the Senate’s constitutional responsibilities.

Songwriting with soldiers? Earlier this week I was looking over Amazon’s digital album deals. It’s a habit of mine. Results are generally feast or famine. Either Amazon has little or no album deals of interest or Amazon has many album deals of interest. September started as a famine month. Nothing much in my three preferred album categories: jazz, country, classical.
