Selectman Sagar Endorses Buckley

The special election to determine who will fill the Board of Selectmen seat vacated by Bill Rice is Monday.

Paul Buckley has the support of at least two sitting selectmen in his bid to join them on Seekonk's highest board. Bob McLintock donated to his campaign  and on Friday, Gary Sagar submitted a letter to Seekonk Patch encouraging residents to vote for Buckley.

Please join me and vote for Paul Buckley in the special election September 24th for the Board of Selectmen. Paul's service to the town has spanned over many years which has prepared him to serve in the highest elected office in town government. "I feel it's my time," Paul has stated many times which he can claim from his many years of involvement in our community. Paul's resume includes the Personnel Board, Board of Assessors, Chairman of the Republican Town Committee, to name a few. As a home grown candidate, Paul's enthusiasm and vision matched with his character and integrity as displayed through his many years of distinguished service to our town, make him the clear best choice in this election. Please vote Paul Buckley on September 24th. Thank-you
