Scott Brown To Visit Hingham

Scott Brown is scheduled to campaign in Hingham on Saturday at 3:30 p.m.

U.S. Senator Scott Brown will make a visit to the Linden Ponds retirement community this weekend to campaign for his upcoming election against Elizabeth Warren.

Brown’s visit comes just a month after Warren spoke to LP residents about her views on the November election. 

The Linden Ponds’ Political Interest Group, made up of all residents, invited each senate candidate to the Hingham senior community.

Political Interest Chairman Marty Saunders said the visit benefits each candidate, as the majority of Linden Ponds residents are registered as Undecided or Independent.

Linden Ponds has 324 registered Democrats, 185 registered Republicans and 586 registered voters who are not affiliated with either party, according to Saunders.  The senior living community also  has voting booths right on its campus and sees a 87 percent voter turnout from its residents.

Saunders said she the LP community was very impressed by Warren’s Aug. 14 visit and even residents who were registered, as Republicans were pleased that she made an appearance.

“She was very warm, very comfortable, and very natural,”  Saunders said. “Her graciousness stuck out."

Brown’s visit is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 22 and only Linden Ponds residents and staff are invited.
