Carly Fiorina will be at Wicwas Grange on Thursday night

To The Daily Sun,

A few months back, I endorsed Carly Fiorina, a GOP presidential candidate. It was the first endorsement I'd ever made of a presidential candidate. I was and continue to be impressed by Carly's depth and breadth of knowledge and experience. She has the skills, knowledge, and strength of character that we so desperately need in Washington.

As someone who sought out elected office because I wanted to be a voice for our communities, I see the same determination and commitment in Carly. She doesn't want to be president, she wants to be a servant leader for our country.

As someone who has fought tirelessly to protect private property rights for folks in District 2 and beyond, I was also impressed that Carly has taken a public position on this issue. Just recently Carly was interviewed by the Keene Sentinel and said, "Property rights are pretty sacrosanct ... there is a proposal that would use existing rights of way ... why should a regulatory agency of the federal government, populated by people who are not elected and are not accountable ... why should an agency of the federal government align with a commercial interest be able to say to a property owner, 'Sorry our rights our more important than yours.'" ("Carly Fiorina Editorial Board At The Keene Sentinel," Keene, NH, 11/18/15).

This Thursday evening we will be hosting a Town Hall at the Meredith Wicwas Lake Grange from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. I encourage anyone who is interested in meeting Carly to take advantage of this opportunity.
