We asked each 2008 legislative election candidate the following six questions:
1. What can you, as a state legislator, do to help people struggling this year with the high cost of gas and oil? 2. How would you handle the biggest issues facing the towns in your district? 3. Do you have any plans that would result in more jobs for Maine? 4. What do you think of the beverage-tax repeal on the November ballot. 5. Would you support legislation to change the income tax or sales tax? 6. What’s the biggest social issue facing the state in the next two years?
