Hardy Machia goes on the offensive by pointing out the incumbents ads of wanting to work for lower taxes are just not true. This PDF of Can’t Afford These Taxes postcard shows how much new spending the incumbents approved last session, and highlights how the Vermont state budget has doubled in the last eight years, but what we are getting in services hasn’t.
Andrew Thomas sent out a similar mailing for his race, but the incumbent in his race voted for budgets in excess of 15 billion dollars in new spending since she took office….Andrew’s mailing.

Congratulations to Hunter Melville for his appointment to Town Grand Juror in Woodstock.
Just before town meeting in Woodstock Hunter noticed no one was running for Grand Juror. He mounted a quick write-in campaign and got 29 votes. He needed 30 votes to win a write-in election, so he had to be appointed by the Selectmen for the position, which they did last week.
