Thank you to all of the voters who turned out for the Brattleboro election on March 5. Democracy is alive and well in our town.
And thank you to those who voted for me. I hope to represent those who voted for me and those who voted for other candidates. The Brattleboro Selectboard is a nonpartisan institution, and that means that we have a great deal of potential for collaboration and consensus-building.
I hope to promote that climate on the Selectboard and to be a voice for the people of Brattleboro. I intend to ask a lot of questions and make sure issues important to all voters are discussed openly and in sufficient detail.
