To the Editor:

To be elected to serve Newtown is both a humbling and gratifying experience. For all those taxpayers who exercised their right to vote, I applaud you. To the many that supported me, but could not vote for me, I am honored. To those who decided to vote for me in District 1, I am especially appreciative.

As a member of the Legislative Council, I will continually strive to do my best for the Newtown community. I am open and available to discuss any issues/concerns you may have over time.

My expression of gratitude simply stated is thank you.

Respectfully,

Bob Merola
