Every time there is an election, there is “popular” voting. You know, the largest signs, the most commercials or the person most often written about in the newspapers. We have all been guilty of it. Our constitution allows for us to vote for our representation, we are so lucky. Remember that the candidates have a message, listen for the one that makes good common sense.

New Englanders are known for our sound reasoning abilities, our no-nonsense approach to life as well as government.

There’s a primary election Tuesday. Vote.

Information about how the system works can be invaluable to a candidate running for office. The knowledge helps the candidate serve us. Donald Bernard served as a member of the state Senate before, let us elect him again. I believe that he will work tirelessly for all of us.
