Westbrook, MAINE – Republican gubernatorial nominee Shawn Moody yesterday promised Maine people four more years of Paul LePage. The governor was so ecstatic he declared Moody “my guy all the way.”
“Shawn Moody is Paul LePage’s third term and the governor is thrilled about it,” said Phil Bartlett Chairman of the Maine Democratic Party. “At a time when Maine lags the nation in economic growth, the opioid crisis rages on, more children are hungry and living in poverty, and the will of the people is being disregarded, why would we want to elect a governor who will continue to do the same things? Maine deserves a change – a new and better direction.”
