This Years Candidates For office
Here's the list of candidates running for vacancies in this year's election. Looks like we need a good list of write ins if the Town is ever going to pull itself up from the same old stagnant and highly influenced quagmire we've been mired in for so long. Same old, same old, does not mean best qualified as past elections and our tax situation so very well demonstrates.

Who are the canidates for the school board?
If I recall -
Elisha Jackson
Richard Horton
Bill McGrath
Colleen Duquette
Jennifer Gomarlo Gile
Wrong... Elisha, Rick, Jacqui Beaman, Jason Cardinale, Colleen, and Bob Degray.
Elisha Jackson
Richard Horton
Jaqui Beaman
Jason Cardinale
Bill McGrath
Colleen Duquette
None of them get my vote..
No I think the last poster is incorrect. Elisha Jackson knows a lot about the school process and would make good judgment calls to support us all. Elisha will not go along with Whippie bull-crap.
Jacqui Beaman is smart also but seen as a spender. Probably will go along with Whippie.
Rick Horton will hold the school spending but will not cut the school budget a great deal.
Anyone would be better than Colleen Duquette.
On March 8th the Winchester PTA is hosting a meet the candidates night in the middle school cafeteria.
I am not sure of the format but we should all make an appearance. Elisha and I will be there to discuss the our plans to bring the School Board and the voters back in control of our children's education.
Vote for tax cuts.... Not teachers cuts....
The SAU has outlined plans to cut 4 teachers and no cuts to administration. They are not acting with the best interest of our children and if the current School Board votes to approve the SAU's plan they are not acting with the best interest of the children or voters.
Any teachers that but into their plans are short changing themselves and our children's education. Last year at deliberative you trusted the School Board and what happened????? Teacher cuts.
If your trust the current board again you will have positions cut. Its time for a change... Time for all of us to exercise our right to vote!
Lastly the Board of Selectman voted last night to send a letter to the School Board advising them not to enter into any contracts until after the vote on March 13th. If they sign SAU contracts before the budget is voted in that is irresponsible. Furthermore if they do that they will tie the hands of the future School Board and make it so they cannot cut administration. If the SAU is protected by contracts we will have to look at other administrators to cut.
Elisha and I presented a fair and responsible budget at deliberative. We made a small step in the right direction. Times are changing. The people spoke up at deliberative and sent a clear message to the current SCHOOL Board and SAU that we have had enough.... Its time for a change...
Mr. Horton if you get on the SB. How Do you plan to work with the SAU collaboratively after you bash them over and over again. Dont you think they read this blog too?
I believe that someone that is contrary to the SAU will be beneficial to the taxpayers. How else will be ever get change and the true information out of there?The current school board isn't doing much to help us.
