Owen Casas, of Rockport, filed his paperwork as an Independent candidate for Representative of Maine House District 94 (Camden, Rockport and Islesboro) in early January, and has begun his campaign for office. 

Casas was born and raised in Washington, Maine, and now lives with his wife and two children in Rockport. He is a recent honor graduate of the University of Maine, Augusta, where he received a bachelor’s degree in applied science, and a minor in business. 

Casas is a long time stone mason, former commercial fisherman, former U.S. Marine Corps sergeant and Iraq veteran.  

He is running as an Independent because he believes citizens on all ends of the political spectrum have something to offer and that an inclusive and moderate discussion that brings the public together is the proper approach for positive change in the community and state.  

He is welcoming of, and desires, open dialogue from all members of the community, and said opinions, advice and help are appreciated.
