I hope voters will join me in supporting Earle McCormick, a Republican from West Gardiner, to represent Senate District 14. Earle is responsive to his constituents, and is running for the right reasons: to help the residents of the district and Maine.

Government at all levels is broken. We need people in Augusta who will seek compromise, as opposed to seeking television cameras. We need people in Augusta who will move the state forward in a positive, constructive way. We need people who listen to their constituents and work across the aisle to find solutions to our state’s most pressing issues such as creating high-paying jobs, conserving our precious natural resources, and improving our floundering school districts.

Earle has served in the House and Senate, and as a selectman. He is thoughtful, hard-working and accessible. He knows how to get things done.

On Nov. 4, please vote for Earle McCormick.
