To the Editor:

As I walk around the community I grew up in and see signs for the upcoming election I am sad. What makes me sad is the fact that candidates running feel the need to align themselves with national political parties.

I believe John Spodofora is a pretty good mayor and a good person. We attended Southern at the same time which means he has a vested interest in the town. Our children were in the same class, so I have seen John and his wife as active and concerned parents.
