Guy Lebida

Guy Lebida is a Poland, Maine resident who knows what it means to earn something the hard way. As a licensed general contractor, he has spent his career building and repairing homes across the region — understanding firsthand the economic pressures facing working families, the cost of materials, the burden of overregulation, and the shrinking margin between getting by and getting ahead. Guy doesn't talk about hard work in the abstract — he shows up every day and does it. Before picking up a hammer professionally, Guy served his country in the United States Army. That military background instilled in him a commitment to duty, discipline, and protecting the people around him — values he brings to his community and would bring to Augusta. He came within just 54 votes of winning House District 98 in 2024, proving that Poland and the surrounding communities are ready for a representative who reflects their values, not the priorities of career politicians. Guy is running again because 54 votes is not a defeat — it's a mandate to keep going. He believes Maine's working families deserve a voice in the State House from someone who has actually swung a hammer, signed the front of a paycheck, and worn the uniform. He is running to cut wasteful spending, protect property rights, support Maine's small businesses, and bring commonsense conservative leadership to District 98.

Key Priorities

  • Oppose new taxes and cut wasteful state spending to reduce the burden on Maine working families
  • Streamline business licensing and reduce regulatory red tape strangling Maine's tradespeople and small contractors
  • Protect Second Amendment rights and oppose any state-level gun control legislation
  • Expand access to veterans' services and ensure Maine honors its commitment to those who served
  • Defend rural property rights against state overreach in zoning and land use
  • Support local law enforcement and oppose policies that undermine public safety in Maine communities
