Some Wiscasset incumbents plan to run again
Both Wiscasset selectmen whose terms are up in June said in phone interviews Feb. 22, they plan to seek re-election. Voters elected Terry Heller and Dusty Jones to their first terms in 2021. Nomination papers are set to be available starting March 2 for two two-year terms on the selectboard and other local seats up for election June 13, according to a town notice.
Heller noted she would have liked to be succeeded in her seat by any of the young professionals she asked. None had time due to their careers, so she decided she will run, she said.
School committee member Michelle Blagdon will not; Blagdon announced Feb. 21, she will not seek another term. According to Wiscasset Newspaper files, Blagdon has been on the committee since 2017. Her seat is the lone one up for election. The term is for three years, the town notice stated.
