Mike Perkins has earned a seat in our state Senate.

Mike’s life is one of community service. Whether spearheading the Oakland Thanksgiving Dinner, driving a school bus, coaching kids, or filling in as a crossing guard, community is the cornerstone of his life. He has even given his personal cell number to every student in his driving school, telling them, “If you ever need a ride, you call me 24/7.”

No matter the group or individual in need, he will be there to help with no strings attached. He will never ask whether you are a Republican or Democrat, only “what can I do for you?”

In this time of partisan bickering, Mike may be the most non-partisan representative in Augusta. He represents what so many of us are looking for in our leaders. Voters of District 16 (Waterville, Winslow, Fairfield, Albion, Clinton, Benton, and Unity Twp.) would do well to vote for Mike Perkins.
