MTU is supporting the Mayor of Waterville, Paul LePage, for election as the next governor of our State.  All across the State manhy volunteers are working for the LePage campaign distributing lawn signs, LePage buttons and bumper stickers, and painting large lawn signs.  Donations to the campaign are badly needed as Paul is not taking taxpayer money, but instead raising his own funds.  One of his opponents, Elizabeth Mitchell, is running "clean", and has appropriated $1,200,000 from state funds for her campaign.

For further information, please see www.lepage2010.com

In addition to Mayor LePage, MTU is supporting the following candidates for election to the U.S. House of Representatives:

Dean Scontras of Kittery for the First District:   www.scontras2010.com

Jason Levesque of Auburn for the Second District:   www.levesqueforcongress.com

Please joining us in supporting these great candidates.  You may also wish to support your own candidates for the the State Senate and House of Representatives.

 Mayor LePage Maintains Lead in Polls

Monday, August 16th, 2010

With 80 days left to the election on November 2nd, Waterville Mayor, Paul LePage, maintains for the 2nd straight month, a lead of 8 percentage points over "Libby" Mitchell, the Democratic candidate, and 22 points over Eliot Cutler, the leading independent candidate. 

While his opponents try to cloud the debate with faux issues such as gay marriage, the environment, etc., Mayor LePage is sticking to the Maine economy as his overriding concern, and this message seems to be resonating  with the public. 

In the meantime, many MTU members are working with hundreds of volunteers in  spreading campaign materials - lawn signs, bumper stickers, push cards, etc. - all across the State. Anyone who wants these materials, may contact the editor, and we will do our best to provide.
