Vote ROW A for a secure Killingworth

Regardless of our background, or our experiences, or our political affiliation, Killingworth residents can all agree on one thing; we all want the best leadership for the town of Killingworth. 
 
So, imagine a leadership for our town that labels itself “progressive” that is out of touch with its small town constituency and which schedules referendum after referendum to promote laws, ideas, and projects the residents of Killingworth do not want.  Then, imagine a leadership that labels itself “conservative” that offers no ideas for the town whatsoever, led by a First Selectman who hasn’t spent a single day in public office and even a fire commissioner who hasn’t spent a single day with a fire company.  Now, imagine a leadership that doesn’t label itself at all because it only wants to do what’s best for the town, led by a First Selectman with years of local business experience and community service, a veteran selectman well respected by people of all parties for his wisdom, and a trustworthy Board of Finance that have successfully kept Killingworth financially healthy for years. 

Now ask yourself this, in all honesty; which one do you believe is the best leadership for the town of Killingworth?

This is not a political attack by any means.  If you read that paragraph again you will note that nowhere has any political party or candidate been mentioned, and yet odds are, you already knew who it is each statement is referring to.   This is because once we strip away all the labels everyone is using we can see the proven history of how each of the candidates running for office have led our town in the past, and it is almost certainly the way they will lead our town in the future.

The reason why we mention this is simple.  Regardless of our backgrounds, or our experiences, or our political affiliations, we can also all agree that this isn’t Bridgeport, or Hartford, or Stamford.  This is Killingworth, and we have a New England small town culture all our own.  It is the very reason why we want to live here.  All we can ask of you, the good people of Killingworth, is for you to cast a vote according to what you genuinely feel is the best leadership for our town, because the decision you make in this election will influence the New England small town culture we will be handing down to our children in the years to come.

For a secure Killingworth, please vote for our Republican candidates on line A on November 5th.  They are:
