To the Editor,
Congratulations to Representative Matt Lesser on his third win last Tuesday. We wish him well in his representation of the city of Middletown.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all those who voted for me, who helped on my campaign and who worked hard to get out the message of NO new taxes and public safety-Suspending the Prisoner Early Release program.
Though I may not have won, our voice can still be heard and must be heard. I pledge to you as a member of the Common Council and an active member in our community that I will continue to bring your voices forward. It is imperative that we work together to provide solutions for the challenges which lay ahead.
I therefore extend an olive branch to Representative Matt Lesser, Mayor Drew and the majority party of the Common Council to work as a team not isolated by political affiliation. I encourage the voters to hold the newly elected officials to their word on reinvigorating the sluggish economy and to stop the massive tax hikes and perpetual spending.
Again, thank you to everyone who supported me in my effort and I look forward to working with you to make Middletown and even better place to live and to work. God Bless America!
