Political signs supporting the Democratic party have been stolen repeatedly in Holliston.
Dear Editor: Dozens of lawns signs in support of all Democratic candidates have recently gone missing in Holliston—and yes, this started well before Hurricane Sandy made an appearance. It is discouraging to wake up after a calm night to see that every one of your candidates’ signs has been mangled or stolen. Some people have experienced this repeatedly during this election season.

This is my first year working on an election; I am a new member of the Democratic Town Committee, and as such have participated first-hand in the effort required to make phone calls to find out who might like a sign, picking them up, …

Thanks for provided a link to the full text of Question 2 (about 10 pages long). Everyone should read it. It did not have the benefit of going through the legislature so flaws could be discussed and removed and it's got some "propaganda" in it - - - such as the term "humane and dignified" is repeated (according to my count) 17 times!.   more ›
