If Biden comes to Lewiston on Friday, he'll be the fourth sitting president to visit the city. Preceding him: Theodore Roosevelt, 1902; LBJ, 1966 & George H.W. Bush in 1991 (who gave a nationally televised speech from Lewiston High School). sunjournal.com/2023/10/31/pr…

President Biden expected to visit Lewiston this week

The president is likely to visit late this week in the wake of last Wednesday's mass shootings, though the White House has not yet confirmed the trip.

As others have noted, Maine is a small town and the state will be mourning long after the gunman is no longer at large. Follow my erstwhile colleagues at Lewiston’s own @sunjournal and sister paper @pressherald for on ground eyes, ears and nuance. #LewistonStrong
