John Patrick is running for the Maine Senate in District 18. He is a person of great integrity and compassion, with long experience in how to get things done in Augusta.
Patrick is a working man. I work with him at Catalyst Paper, where he has worked for 35 years. He knows what the people of Maine need — a good education, economic opportunity and jobs that pay a living wage.
He is especially good at serving his constituents and directly helping the people of his community, whether they are veterans, senior citizens or just someone with a specific problem who doesn’t know where else to turn.
He is honest, hard-working and experienced, and he really listens to people and cares about them. There isn’t a better candidate than John Patrick, and I hope others will join me in voting for him on Election Day.
