On Schoales’s character, accomplishments

WESTMINSTER WEST — I support David Schoales's independent candidacy for state senator for Windham County.

I have known Schoales for more than 40 years, and I'd like to share with you my feelings about him, about his qualities and his accomplishments.

Schoales was a strong union member when he worked at the shipyards in Boston and in Philly. He has been committed to civil rights for all people, and he has taken on a range of civic duty roles in our community.

He has been a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather, and a caring friend. And as far as I know, he hasn't served the interests of corporations, or promoted policies that favored wealthy people.

For all of these reasons, I believe David Schoales would represent our interests well as senator.
