Jill Duson

Councilor Duson has earned her third term on the Council. Jill’s long service to Portland includes School Committee member, Chair of the School Committee, as well as Mayor of the City of Portland. Her enthusiasm for education, housing, and Portland in general give her League-style cred. While we don’t always agree with everything she supports, she is still hitting for a good average and, as such, shouldn’t be taken out of the city’s starting nine. We also encourage a balance of gender equity in the Council. The League is ecstatic that Jill will be focusing her energy on the city of Portland rather than seeking Tom Allen’s seat next year. Her attention is needed here at home.
