As a Republican who recently changed my party affiliation to Democratic, I am enthusiastically supporting Chip Curry for Maine State Senator representing Waldo County. Chip supported legislation that funded 55% of K-12 education costs and supported property tax relief for seniors.

As a senior and former educator these mean a lot to me. I also spent hours driving Chip around some towns in Waldo County as he went door to door campaigning.  His willing to discuss any ideas people presented to him in a calm rational manner; his focus on women and children’s welfare; and his willingness to work across party lines for the benefit of Waldo County citizens make Chip the obvious choice to me.

I hope you will support him too.
