Margaret Craven, former State Senator, Lewiston
"It is with pride and confidence I write to endorse the Honorable Nate Libby for Maine State senator for Lewiston. Nate is a native Mainer, graduated from Bates College, and remained in Lewiston after his graduation. He has been in public service ever since . We often lament not having enough young people in public service, but here is a young person we can count on and support. Nate is thoughtful, dedicated, honest, approachable, and committed. His experience and hard work will continue to serve the citizens of Lewiston well in the Maine Senate."

Peggy Rotundo, former State Representative, Lewiston
"I am writing to urge all Lewiston voters to support Nate Libby for the Maine Senate on Election Day. Nate is a highly respected and effective member of the Maine Legislature and we need to keep him there to continue to fight for the people of Lewiston. He is an elected official we take great pride in. As a member of the Legislature's Taxation Committee Nate has been a fierce and tireless advocate for Lewiston taxpayers. He is not afraid to take on anybody or any special interest group in order to protect the best interests of his constituents. Nate has been a careful steward of our tax dollars. He never forgets the concerns of the people he represents and never stops fighting for Lewiston's working families who are struggling to make ends meet. Lewiston needs Nate Libby in the Maine Senate."

Kristen Cloutier, City Council President, Lewiston 
"Nate Libby has been a tireless advocate for Lewiston. He has a strong moral character, a wonderful sense of humor, and most importantly, the experience needed in Augusta. Nate is thoughtful, honest and fair. He is smart, generous and dedicated. He listens to his constituents and takes a stand on issues that are important to this community. He has the long-range thinking required to lead our state into the future. I learned a great deal from Nate in our time together on the Lewiston City Council and I look forward to our continued collaboration on issues that affect Lewiston's residents. I will be voting for Nate Libby for the Maine Senate in November. He will continue to represent Lewiston with integrity and enthusiasm."

​​Ira Bittues, Lewiston:
"Nate Libby is the best fit as a candidate for state Senate to represent Lewiston because he truly cares about the city. He was born and raised in Maine and attended Bates College, working to support himself the whole time. After seeing what a great place Lewiston is he decided to stay. He has made a home for his family here, and he is proud to represent Lewiston in both the state Legislature and on the City Council. In both of those roles he has fought for things I can support: supporting small businesses, improving and expanding access to health care, more opportunities for pre-k education, and real common sense welfare reforms that won't hurt the elderly, children and disabled community members. He will always listen when someone calls, and can be counted on to do what is right.Plain and simple, Nate Libby is the right choice for Lewiston's senator."

Lillian O'Brien, former State Representative and City Councilor, Lewiston:
"This year, voters in Lewiston need to be aware and send the best people to Augusta to help with taxation, health costs, and business costs. I want an experienced person to be my next senator, and Nate Libby is my choice. He has served on the Taxation Committee that helped people retain more of their income. He supported the $40 million in promised revenue sharing funds that local communities (such as Lewiston) use to support vital services without property tax hikes. He also pushed for increased property tax fairness credit for seniors and low- or middle-income people. I formerly served on the Lewiston City Council and as a state representative, so I know it is tough work. Now, Nate Libby has done the same. He is the best person for the Senate seat for Lewiston."

Dave Projansky, Lewiston:
"Being a city councilor is a tough job, since every action and word is scrutinized. Nate Libby shines through as a fierce advocate for Lewiston, having passed a municipal budget for 2013 that did not increase the property tax rate while maintaining city services, despite serious cuts from the federal and state governments. Libby was also successful allocating more money for acquisition and demolition of condemned buildings — removing blight from the downtown neighborhoods — and securing funding for an additional code enforcement officer to alleviate code violations in many downtown apartment buildings. That is why I will support Nate Libby as state senator on Election Day. Lewiston needs someone with a track record who has proven passion for this city, for quality of life and job creation."

Ronnie Paradis, Lewiston: 
"Nate Libby is stepping up to represent Lewiston in the Maine Senate. Now, more than ever, people are needed who are willing to listen in Augusta to help break the deadlocks. Libby has gained a reputation for working across the aisle to do what is best for Lewiston and for Maine. Libby has demonstrated his abilities to understand the issues and to make decisions that solve the problems that will help all the citizens of Maine. His experience and knowledge are very important and will move Maine in the right direction. He grew up in a conservative household and learned, from a young age, the need to be open to everyone's opinion and view. I am voting for Nate Libby, Democrat, on Nov. 6, because he listens to all the people."

Peter Alberda, Lewiston:
"I have been a constituent of Nate Libby since he first was elected as my representative in Augusta and on the Lewiston City Council. He has often sat on my porch and listened to my thoughts and frustrations regarding events and issues on both state and local levels. He gave me his personal phone number and answered my frequent calls and e-mails the same day, even when the hours spent in Augusta and at City Hall were long and grueling. Libby came to Lewiston to attend Bates College. He immediately realized this was the place he wanted to stay and raise his family. The first time we met, he told me of his dream as to Lewiston's potential. I was skeptical, but many of his predictions have happened. Nate Libby is a tireless advocate for all of the people of Lewiston, and I will support him on election day."

John Myrand, Lewiston:
"I'm supporting Nate Libby for the Maine State Senate. Lewiston has a history of sending a good team to Augusta that we can be proud of, and that represents all the citizens of Lewiston. I ask that we continue that tradition. Nate Libby is an outstanding public servant. He is approachable, he does his very best to be responsive to his constituents. As a current state representative and city councilor, he brings intimate knowledge to Augusta pertaining to the issues in our community and that makes him an excellent advocate for Lewiston.I will vote for Nate Libby in November."

William and Anne Coffin, Lewiston:
"We know that people get tired of the ruckus during the election season, but you will not hear a ruckus from Nate Libby. He is a gentle, quiet, thoughtful, and a very effective legislator. He is running for the State Senate from Lewiston. He represents Democratic values that support the middle class and the working people of Maine. He is a strong supporter of education, including the expansion of pre-k for all children, keeping young people in Maine, making work pay, and especially supports working families. We will be voting for Nate Libby who will work for all the people."

Aliette Couturier, Lewiston:
"We are, once again, in an election year and I am hoping people will vote in their own best interest, not just based on ideology. Strong representation is needed in Augusta and that is why I will be voting for Nate Libby for the Maine Senate. Libby is an intelligent young man, a Bates College graduate, serving on the City Council in Lewiston and in the House of Representatives in Augusta. Introspective and thoughtful, he is not going to make rash decisions, but will work on behalf of all the citizens of Lewiston. November will be the time for informed voting.
