ANNOUNCEMENT OF CANDIDACY

My name is Barry Laughton Jr. and I would like to announce early that I will be running for City Counsel in ward 1 in Laconia NH. This may come as a surprise to many due to my dreadful loss to become a member of the School Board however I am not going to let that campaign stop me. I am starting fresh with a bold new campaign the likes of which you have not seen from me before. I am starting with a new look, a new attitude, and the same passion for people that I have always had. Let me tell you the reasons that I have decided to run this time. I remember when I ran for counsel against Henry Lipman I looked across the debate table and I heard Mr. Fitzgerald make promise after promise and never have I seen or heard one of those come to pass. They were only empty and / or broken promises and I know that when I make a promise I hold myself to the highest standard to make good on that promise. I also didn't like when I heard that Mr. Fitzgerald thinks that it is OK to double dip off the Taxpayers let me give you an example of that Mr. Fitzgerald gets compensated financially to be a City Counselor and he plans to assist in the plumbing work on the MMS project as he is a professional plumber and for that he will be paid by the taxpayers and that is not fair. Though I am announcing my candidacy early I feel it is best due to the time constraint in the height of the political season in Laconia. Stay tuned for more letters To the Editor for updates in my campaign because I will be announcing my blog then as well as video postings on you tube. Feel free to contact me anytime either by E-Mail or by phone my E-Mail address is barrylgth@metrocast.net or phone (603)524-2542
Thank You
