To the Editor:

We encourage all registered Republicans to go to the polls on Tuesday, September 12, and vote for Mary Ann Jacob. Mary Ann's strong, professional, business career, in addition to her long and varied contribution to the town, educational commitment, and dedication to the Legislative Council speaks volumes to her qualifications.

Mary Ann and her family have lived in town for 29 years and maintain a spirited dedication to its residents. Please, mark your calendar, set your phone/computer, or tie a string around your finger - whatever reminder system you employ - to remember that September 12 is the date to vote for Mary Ann Jacob. You could even encourage a friend or two to join you.

Remember the saying, "Your vote is your voice. Be heard." After the ballots are tallied, let's hope the vote is "heard" for Mary Ann Jacob.

Gratefully,

Jim and Roseanne Loring
