Madison Council Needs Team Player, Pico Says

The following letter was written by Carmen Pico, who is running in Tuesday's GOP primary for a Borough Council seat, during his last election bid.

It is more important now more than ever to get out and vote.  Some people that I have spoken to believe that their votes do not count.  Maybe people feel that when it comes down to it, all the candidates are the same so why bother to vote.  Remember not voting for the candidate you like keeps them off the council and that would be a shame.

I was born and raised in Madison and I love this town. I would like to be part of Madison's future.  I am honest and trustworthy.  I am a multi-generational Madisonian. My family helped Madison thrive.

Some of my goals are:  to keep Madison's taxes in check, honor private property rights, enhance our infrastructure, provide quality programs and services, and most importantly, listen to all Madisonians.

Remember being involved, voting for and knowing what a candidate stands for helps you to be informed about how they will help the people of Madison. So when you are unhappy with road conditions and taxes in your town you know exactly who you can turn to.  I am a team player and that is what we need in Madison. Over the last 3 years I have attended 99% of the council meetings.  I have great respect for what they do and would like to be part of that team.

I am encouraging everyone to get out and vote ... Remember if you want someone who will give their heart and soul to Madison vote for Carmen Pico. Thank you for your anticipated support.
