Unopposed

Democrat

Patrick Colwell Age: 47 Birthplace: Machias Address: 34 Danforth St., Gardiner Education: Gardiner Area High School, Boston University, University of Maine Occupation: Ceramic tile constructor, legislator Experience: Three terms on Gardiner City Council, board member and treasurer of Kennebec Valley Community Action Program, board member of Johnson Hall, Gardiner Rotary Club member, member of 118th Legislature

Top three priorities if elected:

Put policies in place that will encourage job creation in areas of high unemployment. We need to even out economic development so it occurs everywhere in Maine, not just in Cumberland and York counties.

Continue the state’s commitment to general purpose aid to education that we began in the 118th Legislature.

Expand the Homestead Property Tax Exemption to $10,000 of valuation. We need to do more for the working families of Maine and the Homestead is a good place to start.
