With an election upon us there are opportunities to make changes that will last for generations – changes that benefit the people of this great state. The changes we need must start locally. In legislative District 18 – Bangor, Orono and Veazie -you will have three choices. Two of those choices will be the status quo, the two-party system that resulted in some of the worst economic times this state has ever endured.

I ask you consider your independent candidate Thomas Mooney. Mooney is not supported by either major political party and does not have the enormous funding provided to the other candidates. I have known Tom my entire life. He is a lifelong resident of the district. Tom Mooney is your neighbor, he knows you and has fought for you and your families throughout his adult life. He understands the tough times you are going through. Tom is on your side and not obligated to vote the party line. Every decision Tom makes is based on what is best for you.

The reality is that voters have two choices: the status quo or an independent who works for you because he is you. Learn more at thomasmooney.net.
