I would like to urge my fellow Mainers to vote for common sense in these harsh times and support Joe Pietroski for Kennebec County commissioner.

I have had the pleasure to work closely with Joe on the Winthrop School Board. He is a person that examines issues carefully to ensure that policy is meaningful and appropriate. He is a team player who balances the needs of all concerned. He makes himself accountable and responsive when issues arise.

Joe understands the correct placement of priorities and tackles the issues with a sense of urgency based on consensus and precedence. Joe investigates to make himself knowledgeable on the issues that face the community. Joe is a skilled listener. He is what we need in these times.
