Heroux Will Be Effective, Not Cruel I write to provide two basic comparisons between 25-year incumbent Sheriff Hodgson, and his opponent, Mayor of Attleboro, Paul Heroux, candidate for sheriff of Bristol County. First, it is important that the candidate you entrust with your vote should share your values. Hodgson has aligned himself with white supremacist… [Read More]

Heroux Will Do Terrific Job On November 8, please join me in voting for Attleboro Mayor Paul Heroux for Bristol County Sheriff.

Letter Hodgson Claim Absurd
Hodgson Claim Absurd The reality has now been exposed that Sheriff Hodgson has absolutely no way to prove his favorite response to every question that he is “keeping the community safe.” By virtue of his admission that he has no verifiable statistics for 25 years as sheriff regarding the recidivism rate says it all. It… [Read More]
Letter Hodgson Doesn’t Measure Up
Sheriff Hodgson Doesn’t Measure Up I just listened online to the rerun of the debate for Bristol County Sheriff on WBSM radio’s SouthCoast Tonight.

Letter_Question 1 subject to appropriation
QUESTION 1: “Subject to Appropriation” This is a reminder that constitutionally all State income/spending bills are subject to appropriation. The Legislature often sells bills with laudable goals and, when passed, we find the money goes to the General Fund. The State Legislature authored Question 1 to amend the State’s Constitution allowing them to set taxes… [Read More]
