Politics & Government

One man's political preferences

From an observer of Groton Politics for many years - the need for better political balance on the Town Council.

Groton needs a better political balance then we have had in recent years, especially on the Town Council, and we need a combination of new faces and older experience for more effective changes. Below are my choices from both Democratic & Republican parties plus the Independent Party, to achieve this better Council balance, on the ballot form, left to right:
