BAR HARBOR—Due to the resignations of former councilors, Gary Friedmann and Kyle Shank, earlier this year, there are three different races for four town council seats and eight candidates running for those positions.
Yes, Mr. Jennings, Carrie Jones, in a very pleasant way, pointed out my huge mistake. If you go through the comments, you will find my humble apology for my carelessness.
However, I am glad you spoke up , and pointed out Carrie’s many contributions to our community. She deserves a lot of credit for bringing more information to all on the Island.
Lincoln Millstein started his blog 6?7? More? years ago, and his remarkable investigative reporting filled a dearth of information in not only town and Island issues , but further afield. My husband and I were full time residents of BH then, and we really appreciated his reporting and analysis. My husband is now deceased, and I am now an enthusiastic yearly visitor to all our old haunts on the Island.
I was also pleased that Mr. Millstein was complimentary
about the Bar Harbor Story, and encouraged people to read it.
You are more than welcome. I don't believe we ever had the pleasure of meeting. I moved here to BH in 2020. I've heard (and read) a lot of about your late husband, Art, and how active you both were in Bar Harbor. While there are things we may not have agreed on, I do thank you (and Art) for your advocacy for BH. It truly is a special place, a place I don't' take for granted that I get to live and work in. All the best!
I am no longer a year round resident of Bar Harbor, so I will not be voting. But, my husband and I lived for many years in the lovely land of Eden. And we , like so many others , volunteered much of our personal time to keep BH a viable place for the year round people to live and work.
Lincoln Millstein has now provided an extensive interview review of each candidate . This is a service I have never seen before , and it provides highly useful information for voters to make a choice for the candidates who will best serve Bar Harbor.
I wish Bar Harbor citizens the best of luck in selecting their future Town Councilors who could be instrumental in prioritizing the needs of year round residents, not big corporate interests.
Lincoln has talked about the Bar Harbor candidates and I'm sure he will continue to do so, and it's so nice of you to praise him.
However, I'm pretty sure that he didn't interview each of them yet. I'm not sure if he will. These interviews you're commenting on are part of the Bar Harbor Story and we've done these each election season.
Hi Donna. I'm sure it was an honest mistake, but this is not Lincoln's site or article.
This a tremendous service Carrie Jones has done for the voters of Bar Harbor the past 3 years I believe? She does a wonderful job educating and strengthening our community. Carrie has no motive or bias other than telling the story, and allowing all readers to make their own conclusions. We are lucky to have her, both as an actual resident of Bar Harbor, and as a journalist.
I just wanted to make sure she gets the credit she deserves.
