Today, former congressional candidate Dean Scontras and his business partner Richard Benoit were in to talk about their company, RA Power Solutions, which researches alternative energy resources, from geothermal to solar to wind.
Harris Parnell, who directs Maine's League of Young Voters, was on the show for a spirited discussion with Ray about which candidates her organization endorses, as well as its recommendations on the ballot issues.
Maine House candidates Kevin Crocker and Wayne Parry were on the show to talk about their campaigns.
The man who put the "awe" back in Auburn, Mayor John Jenkins, a morning show regular and friend to the program, was in the studio to talk about his support for U.S. Senator Susan Collins and local State Senator Lois Snowe-Mello.
And of course, election issues ramained on the table throughout the program, including Question 1 (beverage tax) and Question 2 (Oxford County casino).
Ray comments on all in the audio post below. Give it a listen, and sound off with your own opinions in the comments section.

Calling Question 1 a peoples veto is a real farce. Aside from the signatures collected ( we all know people hate taxes why wouldn't they sign),
this a beverage industry veto.
There is nothing grassroots about it. I did see 1 $100.00 donation from a guy on the PAC list. Wow !
people are really putting their money where their signature was.
It wil probably pass, but i am hoping the people of Maine will see it for what it is. Just like they did when the beverage industry tried to overturn the returnable bottle bill.
And yes Ray i do pay taxes and i do not mind helping to put your kids through school with my taxes.
Just a part of spreading the wealth.
Going to listen to Howard Dean speak tonight. Should be fun
