To the editor:

As a lifelong Republican, born in South Paris, Maine, and living in Fryeburg, Maine, I never expected to support a Democratic candidate for Maine’s Senate District 19. I had always chosen the Republican Party for its fiscally conservative and ideological views. The Republican Party has changed, and I cannot go where the party is going.

I wish more Republicans would recognize the blight in their party and muster up the courage, like you, to speak out. The US is witnessing the real loss of our freedoms and the blatant erosion of our Democracy by the Party of tRump and his grossly corrupt family, administration, and spineless Republican Congress. Ryan, I applaud your courage and wisdom!
