Zachary Wood

Zachary Wood

Zachary Wood is a Levant selectman who has spent years serving his neighbors through hands-on local government — the kind of work that doesn't make headlines but keeps communities running. As a selectman, Zach knows what it means to sit across the table from residents, listen to their concerns, and make decisions that directly affect their daily lives. He brings that same grounded, practical approach to his campaign for Maine Senate District 4. Zach is running because he believes the people of Penobscot County deserve a senator who has actually done the work at the local level — someone who understands municipal budgets, property taxes, and the real pressures facing working families and small businesses in rural Maine. He's not a career politician looking for a stepping stone. He's a community member who stepped up when his town needed him and is now ready to take that commitment to Augusta. In a four-way Republican primary, Zach stands out as the candidate with direct elected experience and a track record of accountability to his constituents. He believes in limited government, fiscal responsibility, and preserving the rural character and independence that define life in Maine's District 4. When you vote for Zach Wood, you're voting for someone who has already proven he'll show up and do the job.

Key Priorities

  • Reduce unfunded state mandates that drive up local property taxes for Levant and District 4 homeowners
  • Oppose energy mandates that increase home heating costs for rural Maine families
  • Protect Second Amendment rights and oppose new restrictions on law-abiding gun owners
