The National Rifle Association has recently come out with its ratings of candidates and legislators. I was disappointed to learn that the area’s current representative, Sheryl Briggs, received a D rating.

Briggs is defined as “An anti-gun candidate who usually supports restrictive gun control legislation and opposes pro-gun reforms … regardless of public statements, can usually be counted on to vote wrong on key issues.”

I want someone in Augusta who will stand up for my constitutional rights.

Lisa Keim, scored an A on the NRA’s scorecard. She can be counted on to support gun rights and pro-gun legislation.

I will be voting for Lisa Keim, who will protect my right to bear arms.

Gene Skibitsky, Dixfield
