Voting today I belong to a local sportsmanship club that has email alerts. And I believe our very own Mik set up the web site for them, maybe he can tell us all how expensive or difficult it is for the town to provide this service.
Voting today "Election day was announced a the Annual Town Meeting and Deb B pleaded for write-in candidates for town meeting members."
Seems to have gone right over the heads of some of the people posting here ;-).
Voting today "If the town wants us to believe they don't know how to get the word out to its residents, that's BS."

I have an adult-size pad and 2 bags but want to put kids (7 and 4) ...

Voting today I did not notice anyone saying anything that warrants an apology to the town clerk. Nobody said the town or the town clerk did anything wrong. What I saw was suggestions that would make elections more noticeable to a very busy population.
Maybe to ...
