Link to the Suffield debate from October 22:

Dear Friends,

                Election Day is less than SIX DAYS away!  This campaign started over seven months ago with a promise of giving you and your neighbors a different voice in the state senate. My vision for the towns of the 7^th Senatorial District came straight from you.

 I've spent mornings listening to you at the diner counter, afternoons listening to you at your doorstep and evenings listening to you at your children's little league and soccer games. I heard your concerns about your jobs, your health care, paying your mortgage and the safety of your neighborhood.

                I have taken what you told me and spread the message in every corner of this district.

                As your state senator, I will work to keep our young people here in the state as they begin their careers by giving tax credits on their student loans.

I will make our lives more energy independent and affordable while creating good paying green collar jobs with benefits.

I will help residents and businesses save money by giving incentives to retrofit their properties using geothermal, solar panels and fuel cells.

I will help make our town centers vibrant once again by working with private, local, state and federal officials in connecting our towns to Hartford and Springfield by rail.

I will fight to secure our streets, educate our young and keep our communities healthy.

Now is the time for us to think big and plan smart in North Central Connecticut.

I need any help you can give over the next five days.  I'm asking you to call your family, friends and co-workers to ask them if they would give me the greatest civic gift they're afforded - their vote.  

I'm asking if you would be willing to join me at the Enfield Democratic Headquarters this Saturday morning at 9:30am and join us in a literature drop in the largest town in the district.

 I'm also asking if you would be willing to volunteer some time on Tuesday making phone calls or standing by the polls to help put me over the top.

I want to thank you for all you have done. This race is going to be one of the closest in the state and it is because of the trust you have shown in me. I want to invite you all to join us at Chicago Sam's on 95 Elm St. in Enfield next Tuesday night after the polls close for a celebration of this historic election and a thank you for everything you have done to get me here.

All the best,

      George
