On October 9, 2009 a posting was done on this site by a person using the name Eliza. I verified the tax rolls and there is no one in the Town of Wirt or Richburg with the name Eliza. This person stated they find it offensive that I proclaim to be the savior of their community and taxpayers. I have asked this person to identyfy themself and they have not. I would think it would be more offensive to the community and taxpayer that a person would pretend to be representing the town and taxpayer and use false information to slander anyone including myself. I have posted accurate and truthful information that can be verified. Eliza is receiving false information from someone or is fabricating information to make it appear as though I am not a creditable person. I would suspect that this person is not doing this on their own. Anyone else involved has no more credibility than Elisa. I would further suspect that the person doing these postings does not like this website but continues to read it and post on it using a name so they cannot be identified. I also do not know why Eliza would think you needed a savior of your community. Your elections should demonstrated what the voters want, being good or bad. I hope your election turns out to be the best for the Town of Wirt and its citizens.

The Watchdogs also support Gayle Dorrett for the position of town clerk/collector in the Town of Wirt. Gayle is highly qualified to serve the community in this position. Again, regardless of your choice(s), please be sure to exercise your right to vote on Tuesday, November 3rd.

The Watchdogs also support & endorse Justice Manners to be re-elected. She is also one of our own with her very no-nonsense attitude. She continually utilizes a very sound, common sense approach toward things and has done a hell of a job. Impressive, to say the least. Once again though, regardless of your political choice(s), please be sure to vote. Good luck to all.

The Wirt Watchdogs respectfully both endorse & also support one of our own, Lea Dorrett, for the position of Town Supervisor. We feel that Lea Ray’s:

• Premise of putting the taxpayer & the public first,
• experience on a daily basis at the Allegany County government level in the Public Works Dept.,
• knowledge of New York State laws,
• proper protocol for conducting public meetings,
• a willingness to address the extremely high tax rate in Wirt,
• ability to apply for badly needed grant monies in the Town of Wirt,

all bode well not only for her, but for all of you & all of us as well. Going forward, please consider this opportunity to change the way things are currently done. All she needs is your support and she will get the job done – correctly. Regardless of your choice(s) please be certain to exercise your right to vote next month.

Election time is nearly hear, I would like to see who the Wirt Watchdogs support and who is running for each position. Hopefully those who disagree can do so with respect for there neighbors. It is interesting that I see a sign that says vote for experience! All thought the candidate has many years of experience in building and maintaining roads does he have the experience in budgeting, working as a supervisor, scheduling work assignments or working with the town board on budget and contract issues? I would say both candidates bring good qualities to the elected position it is our job to pick the candidate who brings the experience to do the best job as highway superintendent. For those of you who have jumped on the Obama band wagon calling for change remember change can be positive or negative rather than calling for change for the sake of change choose a candidate and convince us that they will make positive changes.

Good Luck to all the candidates in the election and there terms if elected.

Dan
