Election Day

Election Day is my favorite holiday of the year. There's always so much energy and excitement–it's also the day you see the culmination a campaign's hard work and energy.

2009 is going to be an important year for Maine people. There's too much at stake today, so go out and vote!

We have the opportunity to Protect Maine Equality at the ballot to ensure same-sex couples have the rights and benefits of marriage.

We have the opportunity to defend our communities against drastic cuts to basic social services and programs with TABOR and the Excise Tax Repeal on the ballot.

If you live in Portland, there are some critical local election races as well. The League has it's annual voter guide so check it out before you head to the polls!

If you live on Munjoy Hill, I'll be at East End Community School shaking hands with voters later today.
