It is a great honor to have been chosen by all three towns as our next State Representative. I will work
hard to build common ground, and to find common-sense solutions to the obstacles and challenges we face.
Life is no bowl of berries. Our times call for sacrifices over the next few years if we are truly to invest
in our future and adjust to changing global realities. Yet we have many strengths in our region as well, and would do
well to remind ourselves of these more often.
I want to thank my friend and worthy opponent Brian, my hardworking supporters, and above all the voters of each
town, regardless of how they voted, for taking the time to share your concerns with me as I knocked on all 4,000+ doors in
the district. I will work hard for you, for your children and grandchildren, and for our region's collective future.
Yours truly,
Seth
