Thank you to all who came out to vote today! We have results in from each of the polling places, and absentee ballots. We are happy to announce that 30% of voters came out to vote in today's referendum. Question 1, pertaining to fixing the roofs and roads has passed, and Question 2, pertaining to renovating the police station also passed. Questions 3-5 unfortunately failed today.
While these weren't the results we hoped for, we want to thank everyone who voted, and who advocated for the issues that were important to them!

An important note to our South Windsor friends and neighbors:

We live in politically divisive times. Unfortunately, we see this at many levels, from national to community. The March 16th referendum, occurring in our town, has generated passions on both the “for” and “against” sides of some questions. There have been reports of threats targeted at those who hold opinions in opposition to others. We all should find this unacceptable. We need to be able to disagree without becoming disagreeable.

This is an urgent plea for all of us to demonstrate restraint and respect for others both in person and in online communities. We are friends and neighbors. We need and rely on each other. Regardless of the outcome of the upcoming referendum, we must respect the results, and move on as a community.
