To the Editor:

Please support Pat Llodra for first selectman. Having worked with Pat, I have seen first-hand that she possesses the qualities Newtown needs in a leader. Pat is open-minded; she considers issues thoughtfully and rationally. Pat is also a good listener — a trait that is sometimes undervalued in the political arena. Pat Llodra will provide responsible leadership for Newtown. Our community will benefit if we elect Pat Llodra.
