Glad to see a lot of Lewiston residents agree that $58 million is a lot of money to give a company to pollute your water and use your electricity.

Voted to let 14 year olds in DC be prosecuted as adults and now to let migrant children be strip-searched, Jared Golden is showing his true colors as he is not running for reelection. If he ever surfaces in politics again, we will not forget his horrendous record.

That looks nothing like Janet Mills but also Susan Collins has sent more than $400,000 (not a typo) to this group over the last few years...so Collins is literally paying for these gross and indefensible AI ads. Maybe somebody could ask her about them?
