Moderator race

Don't forget the race for Town Moderator between Leo Gaudette and Chris Jenkins. Jenkins penned a letter to the editor today asking for folks' votes:

This year, in addition to races for School Committee and Board of Selectmen, there is one more contested race on this year's ballot -- that of town moderator. The moderator presides at Town Meeting and makes several appointments to town boards and committees.

I have been a resident of Dracut for most of my life and have been heavily involved in the community. I am running for moderator because I have the skills and experience necessary to preside at a large Town Meeting. I will preside over Town Meeting in a way that is fair and inviting for everyone concerned while also being mindful of efficiency in the way we govern ourselves. I am also committed to making appointments to the various town committees for which I would be responsible in a timely and transparent manner. I believe I bring the right balance of new blood and familiarity with our polity to be a successful moderator. I respectfully ask for your vote on Monday, May 2.
