I wonder if Sue (Independent), Mary (Republican) and George (Democrat) from Frank Gunsallus’ fliers will come to the table to suport Johnny Mautz, Chris Adams and Joe Gamble in their re-election campaigns. I’d hate to think these three would sour on providing testimonials for other candidates after Frank’s landslide loss.
Rodney Tong says
Oh, those fictional AI characters that don’t exist.
Donna L von Lipsey says
Congratulations Don! Thank you for listening and keeping your campaign positive and issues focused.
Frank Foster says
Looks like the endorsement of the Council President by the Talbot county Republican Council didn’t help the incumbent win. A good sign.
Anne Johnston says
Don Abbatiello’s landslide victory for Easton Council President is wonderful news & a shining example of Elon Musk’s
$25 million lesson in last month’s Wisconsin State Supreme Court election: Voters are turned-off by overkill appeals for their vote.
I am not the only voter who was offended by the stunning saturation of Frank Gunsallus campaign signs in Easton, and while there are important reasons I voted for Don Abbatiello, I will be relieved to see them all gone.
