Elwin's attempt to run as a write-in is an insult to the electoral
process, effectively depriving the voters of the open debate and
discussion that frames a sincere and serious campaign. Anyone who was
at the last Town Meeting will remember the verbal attack Charlie
weathered from the same person now unofficially running against him and
who also saw fit at the meeting to aggressively air his issues with the
board on numerous topics. Elwin's input could have been constructive at
the right time and place; instead he chose to attack when it was too
late to do any good, clearly aiming to embarrass the volunteers who
spend countless hours doing their best to support the town.
Charlie Hosford is one of the small group of people in the town who put
in endless hours behind the scenes and outside of the meetings,
contributing and serving without fanfare and with little thanks,
following his heart with skill and determination toward making
Waitsfield a better place. We need to support him in this election by
checking the box next to his name on the ballot.
