Special Elections State Rep Dist 7 & 68 #nq

Did you Vote Today?

Not much has been mentioned in the news for the 2 special elections...

District 7 & 68 for the state rep seats that were vacated when the state reps won their bids in Feb for State Senate, which now leaves 2 house seats to be filled tonight when the votes are counted... I've not yet heard the results but they are pending now the polls closed at 8pm

There was no republican candidate for the 7th district seat so the race is between a democrat & a far left Working Families Party union promoting new comer

If you live in the district I hope that you got out & VOTED for the democrat... the lesser of 2 evils in the race... unless of course you enjoy paying higher taxes to the unions

I can't comment on the race in the 68th district since I don't live in the area and haven't bothered to read about the candidates for that race because... 

I've been paying attention to the craziness going on with the state budget and how it affects the towns in their budgeting process... some towns are holding off their budget votes until after the session ends on June 7th

I did ask most of the town council members; including the mayor & deputy mayor and our town manager, if it would be possible to hold off on the initial budget vote until AFTER the June 7th general assembly session ending like some other towns were doing.

The general answer that I was given is "we'll have to look at that as a possibility" and a vote on that may come out on that this week on Wednesday night's meeting. The town charter only states that a budget vote has to happen prior to June 30th so there is enough time to be able to hold off on the first vote until after the session ends.

Today my #Artful8ths post is sharing a video of a friend;

Paul "PEZMan1963" Z.; who has left CT )0;}

 

PEZ; as he is affectionately known by many, left only partly due to the high cost of living...

Like many who have left CT he was sick and tired of getting his pockets picked by our elected officials and the crazy government overreach. 

 

#MalloysMess has chased many friends and family out of CT

CT's loss has been a #Win for the Music & TV world 

PEZ transplanted to Nashville and is on his way to #FameAndFortune 

So one day I'm going to get a Signed Copy of his "Gold Record" when he hits it big...

West Hartford Town Hall - Bronin Pushing Regionalism - Ed Peruta Off the Cuff

Have you been following what is happening over in Hartford's city hall? 

Well if you're a taxpaying property owner; 

you need to wake up & 

start asking some questions 

of your mayor & town council 

(especially if they are democrats) 

because many have already gone on record volunteering YOU & Your Family

to pay higher taxes 

so that you can pay for 

HARTFORD's money mismanagement, & decades of corruption... 

YES That's Right ...

You Don't get to VOTE in Hartford 

but YOUR TAXES will be going up 

so that YOU can Pay 

"Your Fair Share" 

of Hartford's Mismanaged "Bills"! 

You won't have a voice in how that money is misspent (that's what they do there) 

BUT each year 

Your Family will have Less & Less 

while #BrokeBronin & his cohorts 

get to Spend More & More

If you Do Not Speak Up Now

Then YOU subject your family forever

to the whims of the corruption going on down in Hartford's city halls...

More backroom failed stadium deals

More tax increases to pay higher salaries

More tax increases to pay for more scandals

The choice is yours 

Speak Up NOW...

 or 

Forever be subjected 

to the continued mismanagement & 

added tax increases circle

Can YOUR Family Afford to Pay More Taxes for Hartford's Money Mismanagement?
