Three Groton Republicans recently wrote a list of the things they felt we deserve to have in a Town Clerk.
WE three Republicans AGREE with their list and are happy to say we ALREADY have a Town Clerk who meets every one of those qualifications:
Democrat, Betsy Moukawsher:
1. Betsy HAS completed all the credits she needs for certification as a Town Clerk—an achievement that takes three years.
2. Betsy has ALREADY drafted simple, readable summaries for our referendums and, under her, the office does not burden us with extra costs—it makes money for the town through service fees.
3. Betsy IS particularly knowledgeable about the RTM and its rules—she served on the body for years before being elected clerk. She has never been partisan, which is why just as many Republicans support her as Democrats.
4. Betsy IS the warm and welcoming presence we need at Town Hall. She is known all over town for this and deserves the high praise she gets for making things easier for citizens at town hall.
5. Betsy has OVER 25 years of experience with elections and election rules. While the clerk no longer runs the elections, people still turn to Betsy for advice.
Groton should KEEP turning to Betsy. She is qualified, caring and creative. She deserves a resounding reelection.
