Throughout their campaigns for Town Council, Donna Costantino and Peter Rodgers have visited hundreds of homes across East Greenwich, meeting residents, listening to their concerns, and learning more about the issues that matter to our community. I am grateful that they were so warmly received. And I appreciate how much trust you have put in them. I know that, if elected, they will work just as hard to keep your trust.
Thank you to the many donors who made all of our outreach possible. We raised more this year than ever before, so when we wanted to hire a talented videographer to tell the story of our candidates’ platforms, we had the resources to make it happen. When we wanted to expand our advertising, reach more voters, and put our candidates’ messages in front of the community, we could do that, too.
One donor captured the spirit of this effort perfectly by simply writing “good government” in the notes section of their contribution. That is exactly what this is all about. Good government starts with engaged citizens, accountable leadership, and elected officials who put the interests of their community first. Your generosity helped us give that mission a stronger voice.
And I want to recognize all the volunteers who assisted our candidates throughout their campaigns. To the EGRTC Board- thank you for helping lead this mission for better representation. To our Voting Members and volunteers- you have provided the consistent support that keeps us going, and I’m proud to have you on our team.
Whether you knocked on doors with the candidates, made phone calls, put up signs, plan to drive voters to the polls, or simply encouraged a candidate along the way, your efforts matter. I hope you take pride in what we accomplished together.
Thank you to our local Board of Canvassers who work hard to make this election process run smoothly. And we appreciate the many poll workers and nursing home supervisors who make it possible for the community to exercise their right and privilege to vote.
To all of the people who made a commitment to vote this election- thank you. Many Democrats, Unaffiliated voters, and Republicans have told Donna and Peter that they plan to support them with their vote this year. It shows that good local leadership, accountability, and a commitment to the community can bring people together across party lines.
I am proud of what we have accomplished and am grateful to everyone who contributed their time, talents, and resources. Neighbors working together, supporting transparency, fiscal responsibility, and advocacy for local control. Thank you for being part of it.
Catherine Rodgers
Chair, East Greenwich Republican Town Committee
