I am a registered Republican. I always vote for the best candidate in any election, Republican or Democrat. This is particularly important in local elections. In Talbot County, Republican Laura Price and Democrat Pete Lesher will get my vote in the November 6 election. There is no question that they are both intelligent, thoughtful and committed to maintaining the rural countryside that makes Talbot County such a desirable place in which to live. Laura (along with retiring Councilman, Dirck Bartlett) has been most diligent recently in making sure sewer lines in the County do not promote unwanted growth in the County.
In her eight years on the County Council Laura has also been exceptionally thorough in studying the County budget, promoting reasonable, balanced proposals. Pete has done an outstanding job on the Easton Town Council for 12 years as part of a team that continues to make Easton a great place to live. County before party should be the thought process in deciding what candidates are best for Talbot County.
