I am writing to urge the voters of Maine Senate District 8 to vote for Abe Furth in this June’s Democratic primary. Furth is a tremendous candidate and would be a real asset to his district and to the whole state of Maine. Furth grew up in rural Maine and understands the concerns of working Mainers trying to put food on the table for their families in small towns throughout the state.
