Sample ballot wins

If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
What you are hiring
A four-year, full-time county Sheriff: 301 Park Street, court in Rockland, island civil process, jail as the county actually runs or contracts it. Not Rockland Police. Not Maine State Prison. Not District 6. Read the office page.
Bay rights, island papers, due process
A wrong paper or a mistreated hold is still a complaint door. Relief when the ferry dies is still this county’s mutual aid. Service of process is still a person on North Haven. Equal protection from Warren to Isle au Haut as the towns actually sit.
