    The easy choice – Owen Casas

    In an election year full of tough decisions at both the local and national level, I'm relieved to be faced with an easy choice for Maine's House District 94 Representative. In the past couple of years, I have witnessed Owen's strong work ethics, love for our community, and his unbiased ability to listen to all sides of a discussion.

    Rockport is stronger because of Owen's seat on our Select Board, helping to bring about working solutions to our public library woes, and revitalizing several town committees that had all but fallen by the wayside. And Owen quickly stepped in to resolve safety issues at Marge Jones Recreation Fields on Route 90 when local families were getting push-back from town administration.

    I have no concern over Owen's ability to handle the demands that come with the District 94 seat. Time and time again, I have witnessed Owen Casas take on new issues with energy, enthusiasm, and his signature brand of integrity. I am confident that Owen Casas has the skills and virtues to best serve Rockport, Camden and Islesboro as our representative in House District 94.
