Dana Dow Begins Second Term in State Senate

FOR IMMERDIATE RELEASE

DECEMBER 8, 2006

 

On Wednesday, December 6, the 123rd Legislature officially began, when Governor John Baldacci swore all Maine State Senators and Representatives into office.  Among those who assumed office that day was Republican Senator Dana Dow.

 

Representing District #20, Dow, of Waldoboro, serves the people of Alna, Boothbay, Boothbay Harbor, Bremen, Bristol, Damariscotta, Edgecomb, Hibberts Gore, Jefferson, Monhegan Island Plantation, Newcastle, Nobleboro, Somerville, South Bristol, Southport, Waldoboro, Westport Island, Whitefield and Wiscasset in Lincoln County, Friendship and Washington in Knox County, and Windsor in Kennebec County.

 

Dow, beginning his second term in the State Senate, defeated Democrat challenger Kathleen King on Election Day.  His victory helped the Republicans increase their margin in the Senate.  With 17 seats, Republicans are poised to work alongside the Democrats to advance a truly bipartisan agenda for the State of Maine.

 

“I am truly honored that the people of District #20 have re-elected me to represent them in the Senate,” Dow said.  “I look forward to continue working for my constituents, and encourage them to come to me with any questions or concerns they may have.  The opportunity to give back to my community, and work for the changes that our state needs is one I will never take for granted.”

 

Senator Dow can be reached by calling the Senate Republican office at 287-1505, or by calling 832-5467, or e-mailing danadow@adelphia.net.
