When my late husband Bob and I moved to Augusta more than 15 years ago the first to reach out to us were our neighbors Bill and Janice Bridgeo. Bob was always interested in city affairs and he and Bill had many great conversations about issues of public concern. I know that Bob would be elated at the fact that Bill has decided to run for the legislature (as I am!).

Bill will bring a voice of moderation to the state government as he did during his long career as city manager. He will stand up for women’s rights, for strong environmental protections (we both grew up in the Caribou/Presque Isle area and cherishing nature is in our bloodstream), and for fiscal responsibility.

He has my vote and I hope he has yours.
