Collins inspiring

I have been watching and reading information about the election and trying to make the best choices I can.

Susan Collins is my choice for the U.S. Senate. I have been reading about her accomplishments on her Web site, and I am so impressed with the wide variety of legislation that she has written or co-written. Her work on diabetes legislation is of special importance to me and my family.

Seeing a woman like Susan Collins in the Senate is an inspiration to me. My family has always told me I can be anything I want to be and do anything I want to do. Sen. Collins is living proof of that. She’s from Caribou and worked to get where she has. Along with Sen. Olympia Snowe, young women in Maine have two great women to look up to.

I encourage other 18-year-olds to join me and register and go to vote in November.
