Dear Editor

The June 11th election is soon upon us. We will be voting to fill two Board of Selectmen seats.

Wiscasset is making great strides towards a promising future.  This election is an important one as we have the opportunity to elect a candidate that has the vision, temperament, and skills to work collaboratively to build a better future for all Wiscasset residents.

I will be voting for Jeff Slack to fill one of the open BOS seats. I feel Jeff is the right person for the job.

Jeff has served Wiscasset in many capacities. As a former selectmen and member of the PAC Committee, Jeff was always informed on the issues and respectfull to all other committee members and residents. He was and I am sure will continue to be an asset to this town.

We need people on the BOS who listen to all sides of an issue, be willing to compromise and build bridges to bring this community back together.

Property taxes are out of control. Wiscasset residents can not afford any more tax increases.  Jeff has a proven track record for holding the town accountable for spending and no doubt will continue to do so if elected.

Please join me in supporting and voting for Jeff on June 11.

Lonnie Kennedy-Patterson
