A sadder place to live

On Sept. 27, approximately 28 “Voter ID for ME” signs were legally placed in Harpswell. As of this writing, almost all of them have been defaced with swastikas or black marker changing the number in Question 1 to an 8. After the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office was notified, most of the swastika signs were removed.

I cannot imagine living in a town where this is happening. The people responsible for this vandalism are obviously disturbed. Their actions say more about them than they do about Voter ID for ME.

Whoever did this is not winning, but they’ve made Harpswell a sadder place to live.
