Paul Lundquist, who is running for Legislative Council, District 1, nailed it on the head with that statement. It’s not party affiliation that matters most. It’s being passionate, honest, and dedicated to doing what’s in the best interest of all residents in Newtown.

I have known Paul and his family for almost ten years. Paul Lundquist always puts his family and friends first and has served our town in many different ways. As many of you may know, Paul conducted a townwide survey, at no cost to Newtown, to determine what the real issues, concerns and needs are of the residents in our town. He is currently serving on the Legislative Council, has co-chaired Ad Hoc committees, and has been the Board of Education liaison for the Hawley School PTA Executive Board.

So, let me see; honest, passionate, fair, family values, Newtown’s best interest at heart, and donates his own time for the betterment of Newtown. Finally a clear choice! Paul Lundquist has my vote. I’m hoping that you can join me in voting for him, too. Paul Lundquist is exactly what Newtown needs.
