Jonathan Fulford, state Senate candidate for District 11 in Waldo County, is running a Clean Election campaign, and that is a big reason why I am giving him my vote on Nov. 4.
Big money in politics sets up politicians to favor financial supporters over public interests. Maine is one of the few states with a strong Clean Election Law, but it is undermined by large sums of independent spending from special interests seeking to influence elections through costly advertising and political tactics.
Jonathan Fulford restores my faith in democracy, spending every day of the last five months working in the morning, and then door-knocking in the afternoon and evening to speak with voters about their concerns.
Fulford encourages the teamwork we need in state government to end gridlock and move forward together. Voters from every party and persuasion can be proud of that kind of candidate.
