Dear Editor:

State Sen. Chris Johnson is a common sense leader and one of the most talented people we've ever sent to our State Senate. I've known Chris Johnson for many years, listened to his thoughts and gotten to talk to him about numerous ideas and issues and I've always come away impressed.

Chris is amazingly gifted and hard working. Chris is great problem solver — speak with him sometime and see for yourself. He thinks about finding the best solutions to complex issues, listens to others, and works tirelessly to build consensus to get the right things done. If we want to change things for the better we need to have Chris Johnson’s innovative talents in the Senate.

Chris is a non partisan thinker. While Chris sees some actions by Gov. Paul LePage as troublesome positions requiring opposition, he also knows that a good idea doesn't care who has it, and Chris will support any good idea no matter where it originates.

Chris continues to visit thousands of homes to listen us and learn about our concerns. Now it’s time for us to learn more about him at and what he is doing for us at www.senatorchrisjohnson.org and understand why Chris Johnson is the right choice for the State Senate.
