Republican candidate for warden removes the official seals of the borough and town from her campaign website

Actions do speak louder than words!

In what could be characterized as a direct response to allegations of election campaign wrong doing, the Republican candidate for Warden has stopped using the Official Seal of the Borough of Jewett City and the Official Seal of the Town of Griswold in her effort to get elected.

The decision to remove the Official emblems of borough and town government from her election effort website is commendable. Matching the content of the website to be within the requirements of the law eliminates the appearance that a candidate has received backing from the local government.

Prior to February 19th, the Republican candidate's website looked like this: click here. As of February 21st, the Republican candidate's website looked like this: click here. The website with a new disclaimer looks like this: click here.

Based on the new disclaimer, the Republican Griswold First Selectman is no longer Treasurer and has been replaced by a new campaign finance Treasurer.


It's all about change!!!
