To the editor:

For several years Barrington and Warren have been represented by Jason Knight who runs with the progressive crowd. I don’t know of an instance when he voted on anything, no matter how inconsequential, that went against the wishes of the House Speaker.

He may come to the soccer games and hand out the grant checks for photo opportunities, but how does that help our towns or state that continues to drown economically? His campaign literature sounds upbeat, but he pays little to no attention to the concerns of residents.

Jason Knight might be a nice person, but we deserve dynamic leaders willing to shake things up, not representatives who sit quietly and do as they are told year after year.

This November, I implore everyone to vote for leaders, not followers.
