Those friendly faces greeting you at the entrance to polling places in town are the candidates and their volunteers.
This morning outside Reed you'd see Mary Ann Jacob, a Republican running for re-election to the Legislative Council. Her golden retriever, Dennis, was keeping her company -- and her feet warm.
Just before 10 a.m. Jacob was joined by Ryan Knapp, a fellow Republican who is also seeking re-election to the Legislative Council.
Nearby, Ann LeBosco Benore held a campaign sign. The Democrat is promising to "Restore Balance" to the Town Clerk's office. Benore was with Maureen Owen, the DTC campaign manager. She was holding a sign in support of Democrat Lisa Romano's campaign for a seat on the Legislative Council.
Owen said the DTC made a big push this past weekend and yesterday, going door-to-door and making more than 1,000 phone calls. That effort was led by Sharon Kish.
