Vote for Villa

To the Editor:

I hope every registered voter goes to the polls on November 6 to express their political preferences. One of the positions being sought in Maine is State Representative for District 98 – which includes Bridgton, Harrison, Lovell, Stow and Sweden.

I plan on voting for Lisa Villa and here’s why: Not only is Ms. Villa an intelligent and energetic go-getter; she has vast experience in public service.

She was a member of the Harrison Board of Selectmen; on the Cumberland County Community Development Block Grant Oversight Committee; a Cumberland County Charter Commissioner; on the Executive Board of the Lake Region Development Council; on the Lake Region Transportation Coalition; the Executive Board of the Greater Portland Council of Government; and chairwoman of Honor Flight Maine – an initiative to honor WWII veterans. Lisa Villa, a mother of two and a passionate defender of the rights of senior citizens and veterans, is also an experienced leader and understands the critical importance of bi-partisan partnerships.

She is the one that I want to represent me in Augusta.
