Watch for the Judd machine coming to a neighborhood near you soon.

Mark Twain notes…
“It is interesting to note that criminals have multiplied of late, and lawyers have also; but I repeat myself.”

Isn’t it a terrible shame how 99% of the lawyers give the whole profession a bad name.

Three questions:

1) Why are you so scared of lawyers?
2) How do you know the “the majority of voters” are not represented by the people aforesaid? Have you any proof?
3) Speaking of proof, is yours forthcoming? I’m really interested to read it, but it’s been quite some time since you said we would see it.

Thank in advance, and have a nice weekend.

Please vote for SB2. Many years ago I did not support SB2. But I’ve seen the light. Our fellow citizens in the military, defending among many things our right to freely vote, have this right removed because of the current town meeting system. Shame on Bow leaders such as Harry. Ditto for our voting age college students. They too are left out. The triumvirate of Harry, lawyer Crisp, and wanna be town manager Kennison do not represent out military, our students, or the majority of voters.

Does anyone remember that or were around then to shed some light on this? I seem to remember controversy in that committee?

I have also heard rumored talk of a Charter Commission and opening the Town Charter to change our form of government to a town council which unlike SB2, which is only a change in how we vote, is a change in town government entirely taking away town meeting and citizen voting on budgets and warrant articles and relying completely on elected officials calling all the shots with no direct say from the voters except in who you elect to represent you in your particular district of town???

I cannot support this type of change and I am voting YES to SB2.

Yes to SB2 no to dirty tricks.

The facts according to Harry:

1. I did not “slip” when I advised the group that the Selectmen had discussed, at Selectmen meetings, forming a committee to review town governance. I noted that this was done in 2001 and that Van Mosher was a member of that committee. Since few people attend meetings of the Selectmen, I thought those present would like to know this.

2. I did not mention, much less advocate, a Charter Commission. Again, I said we would review all forms of governance and the we were inviting public participation, as was done in 2001. Others discussed the history of Charter Commission, but I did not participate in that discussion. I suppose it would be possible for someone to confuse me with Pansy, Deb or Leon, though I don’t think any of them would appreciate the error.

I will appreciate a correction being made.

Thank you.

Harry
