We had the pleasure of attending a great event in support of newly-elected Republican state Representative Shaunna O'Connell at Runes Cafe in her home town of Taunton last night.
The event was O'Connell's first of the year, and it gave her an opportunity to thank her supporters and talk about initiatives she's pushing in 2011, including election reform, fiscal responsibility and immigration reform. She was also joined by keynote speaker Michael Graham, who was enthusiastic about her recent victory.
O'Connell is one of the promising new representatives bringing new ideas and fresh energy to the job on Beacon Hill. She's only been there a few weeks, but we're already impressed by what we see and we think she will go far.
What a great evening! As always, Michael Graham was hysterically funny. City Councilor David Pottier brought up a great point: "Shaunna's not running, she's sprinting!" I can't believe how much she's accomplished already. Taunton is going to benefit tremendously with Representative O'Connell in office.
ReplyDeleteShaunna is off to a great start, as her legislative initiatives show. She is for the people, not for herself. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to celebrate with her, Michael Graham, Sean Bielat, David Pottier, and the rest of her supporters.
