Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on the western Maine town of Newfield, which joined a majority of Maine voters in defeating last month's referendum on gay rights. But in 1998, a majority of Newfield voters supported a similar referendum question. Though the vote was close both times, Newfield tends to vote Republican, and gay rights was an issue in the Republican primary in Senate District 34 this year.
