For the first time in my adult life, I am registered to vote.

Opponents of marriage equality spend a lot of time talking about “traditional marriage.” What does it even mean to say that same-sex unions are non-traditional?

There is a missing element this time around in this debate about redefining marriage, and that is the right of a child to be raised in a family with his/her mother and father, if at all possible.

I am writing to urge voters to elect Democratic Ann Dorney as state representative for House District 86 (Norridgewock, Madison and Solon).

This letter is in response to Elaine Bridge (letter, Oct. 17), a “notary of faith” who was urging a no vote on Question 1.

Everybody has their opinion of the governor. Nobody denies, however, that he has a compelling personal story that merits respect.

I’ve known Democrat Maeghan Maloney for 25 years and am sure that she will excel as district attorney for Kennebec and Somerset counties.
