Question 3 (Pine Tree Power) in the upcoming election is a shaky proposition that raises more questions than it answers. Nobody knows exactly how much it will cost. Most agree it will take billions of dollars to buy out the electric utilities. If adopted, it will likely take between five and 10 years of litigation to sort out legal issues, according to Maine’s Office of Public Advocate. What happens in the meantime? I am voting “no” on Question 3. ~ Bill Roche, Portland
