It’s political yard sign season! Here in Hallowell, we can’t remember a time when we’ve seen so many signs for a mayoral race.

Like an overwhelming number of our friends and neighbors, we’re proud to display a “Re-Elect George Lapointe, Mayor of Hallowell” sign in our yard.

Strong schools, a vibrant and affordable community, and healthy environment are our issues, along with the cornerstone of all Hallowell values: A welcoming city where diversity, equity, inclusion, and access for all aren’t just words, they’re action items. George is indeed a person of action; his remarkably successful first term addressing all these issue areas illustrates that point and we simply can’t imagine why in the world we would change course now.

Drop George an email. He’d be delighted to stop by to listen to your hopes, dreams, and concerns for our little city — and drop off a sign.
