Dear Editor:

Chris Johnson works hard for us. He does more than just talk. Chris listens, asks good questions, does his homework to understand problems, and then works very hard to solve them. It’s easy to speak in generalities and speculate about what might or should be accomplished. The tough part is actually doing all the work to understand possibilities and opportunities and then make things happen to achieve that better vision of Maine's future.

Chris Johnson analyzes the options, considers other people's ideas and concerns, and works diligently with anyone in order to get the job done. I expect that this is clear to everyone who has spoken with him in depth. In short, I can’t imagine anyone doing a better job in the Maine Senate than Chris Johnson. Speak with him and decide for yourself.
