I am writing to support Craig Hickman in the Maine Senate District 14 race. Craig has served our district — Chelsea, Farmingdale, Gardiner, Hallowell, Manchester, Monmouth, Pittston, Randolph, Readfield, West Gardiner, Winthrop, and Wayne — since 2021. Prior to that he served in the Maine House for four terms.

He’s an organic farmer and small-business owner in Winthrop. I’ve known Craig as a customer at his farm stand, as a guy who caused a fender bender with his brand-new truck, and as both an ally and an opponent on a range of issues in the Maine Legislature.

He’s been both a gentleman and a passionate advocate for what he believes in each of those — and a truly nice guy when I dinged his truck. Our politics need more mavericks like Craig and fewer party-line stalwarts. For local food, local communities, environmental protection and human rights, vote Hickman. You won’t regret it.
