Patsy Crockett worked very hard while in the Legislature to keep taxes down, and to bring businesses to the area, including the Augusta Crossing project. I live in senior housing not far from there, and that group of stores is very accessible and makes my life a bit easier.

Now Patsy Crockett has been appointed to temporarily fill the opening on the Kennebec County Board of Commissioners resulting from the death of Beverly Daggett. She is a candidate in the June 14 Democratic primary seeking to fill the rest of Daggett’s term. She knows a lot about county government, and how to improve it, and I’m going to cast my vote for her on June 14.
