To the Editor:

Over the past few weeks much has been written and said about the Town and School Department budgets and the candidates who are running for the various Town offices.  Both sides of the arguments have made their positions clear on why they feel the way they do and have tried to convince you, the voter, to support their particular position.  That is what democracy is all about; it is ultimately up to YOU to decide who you feel is right and in which direction you want the Town and School Department to go for 2011-12. 

To this end, I encourage all of you to please get out on, Tuesday March 8th, and vote your conscience for the candidates of your choice and for the budget and other articles you honestly feel will meet the needs of the Town and School and be a fiscally responsible blue print for the 2011-12 year. 

In these uncertain financial times it is more important than ever for everyone to exercise their right to vote and have their voice heard by the elected officials of the Town of Goffstown.  I thank you and I will see you at the polls on Tuesday March 8th.
