Vote for Windsor Dems

Dear Editor,

I urge my friends and neighbors to elect Joe Major and to re-elect Alison Clarkson and Becca White to the Vermont Senate. Major offers intelligence and extensive management experience. He listens with an open heart and an open mind. Clarkson and White have risen to the challenges of governing in a time of economic difficulties and an unprecedented, excessive number of vetoes from a generous but uncooperative governor.

All three Democratic candidates treat global warming with the seriousness it warrants and understand that we must get honest about carbon-polluting fuels. They understand the complexities of taxation, economic development, housing, health, and safety as serious problems, not grievances to exploit. They’re proud to state their positions clearly and to support Kamala Harris. They’re pro-choice, unequivocally.

Sen. Dick McCormack, Bethel
