Maine has been a wonderful state to raise a family in, especially due to the freedom to choose the best education for our children, whether that was public, private, or homeschooling. More than ever, parents are evaluating which is best for their families, and many are choosing homeschooling. Yet for the first time in 32 […]

I am writing to express my support for Scott Cole for Oxford County commissioner, an independent candidate. I have known Mr. Cole for over 20 years as both a town manager and member of the Bethel community. He did a great job for us as a smart, no-nonsense guy who spoke his mind while respecting […]

I should also be free to have my very own police […]
