I am sitting in Washington Dulles International Airport
waiting for my flight to return home after 36 hours of work and then business
investment travel. Other than the five hours I slept last night, I have been up
since 6AM Tuesday morning and I am looking forward to nap on the flight home
and the train ride out of New York.
I wanted to take the free moment to thank all the
Wallingford Voters that turned out to re-elect me to my former seat on the
Wallingford Town Council. I will continue to say “I wish more people would come
out to vote in local elections” not because I don’t appreciate the 31% that
always do but more because I would rather see us turn out 50% or more for a
local election and put people into office with conviction. 31% isn’t
conviction. I still believe there is a line between complacency and
indifference and that it is a very thin one.
I want people to be involved. I want their interaction at
the meetings. I want their messages. I want them engaged. I hope to encourage
that over the next two years and as part of my second term as your Councilor.
Regardless of the above; I do appreciate the support from
the voters and I am honored to serve.
The POLITICS is now over Wallingford; time to be the
statesmen we were elected to be and serve the public that entrusted us with
their vote.
See you in January.
