Maine has someone new to consider for election this November: Jeff Johnson is running for the seat in Senate District 3, which includes almost all of Somerset County. Johnson’s contributions as a job creator, businessman and expander of social services in the area uniquely qualify him to serve us well in Augusta.

Johnson has been a business and community leader in the Skowhegan area for more than 30 years as a business owner and the CEO of three different companies. All expanded under his leadership, creating new jobs and services for the community. Presently, he is the CEO of the Children’s Center, which provides early intervention for disabled and autistic children up to the age of 5. Since he has taken the CEO position, the Children’s Center has expanded from one location in Augusta to four locations throughout central Maine, including a site in Skowhegan.

As a longtime businessman, Johnson understands how difficult it is to start, grow and maintain a successful business in a poor rural community. He says that government waste and over-regulation continue to create barriers. Johnson knows how to make changes in Augusta to promote successful businesses and new jobs. He is just who we need from Somerset County to work for us in the Senate.
