THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!

JOHN AIRASIAN WILL NOT BE SEEKING REELECTION TO THE WATERTOWN CITY COUNCIL IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION.

 

FOR HIS SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CITY OF WATERTOWN, WE OWE COUNCILOR AIRASIAN OUR HEART-FELT GRATITUDE. (MORE ON THIS, LATER)

 

THE BALANCE ON THE COUNCIL IS NOW UP FOR GRABS.

 

THE FACT  THAT YOU READ THIS BLOG MEANS THAT YOU LIKELY PREFER NUTS AND BOLTS PRAGMATISM OVER IDEALISTIC PROGRESSIVISM.

 

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU PROBABLY VOTED FOR JOHN AIRASIAN AND HIS COMMON SENSE, COMMUNITY-FOCUSED APPROACH TO HIS POSITION OF COUNCILOR AT LARGE.

 

HERE’S THE GOOD NEWS:

 

AT THE REQUEST OF SOME VERY CONCERNED CITIZENS, TOM TRACY HAS STEPPED UP TO RUN FOR COUNCILOR AT LARGE.

 

NOBODY HAS DEEPER ROOTS IN OUR COMMUNITY.

NOBODY HAS CONTRIBUTED MORE TO THE MANAGEMENT OF THIS CITY.

 

BUT…

HERE’S THE CHALLENGE.

HIS NOMINATION PAPERS NEED TO BE SIGNED BY 100 OF US AND RETURNED TO THE CITY CLERK’S OFFICE BY MONDAY, JULY 14!

 

THIS IS COMPLETELY DOABLE!

 

TOM’S NOMINATION PAPERS WILL BE ON MY FRONT PORCH AT 67 MARION ROAD BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS BLOG POST.

PLEASE SIGN HIS PAPERS AND GET SOMEONE ELSE TO SIGN THEM TOO. ELODIA AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU.
