Thibault Campaign – "Empty Promises"

Did everyone get their [Paul] Thibault campaign mailer? Attached is an absentee ballot for a nice incentive to encourage votes on April 22. A campaign mailer full of empty promises.

"Cut Taxes Now" funny – he raised county taxes while in office.

"Reform State Government" has an interesting line - "too many decisions are made as a result of backroom deals, with no opportunity for public input" Thibault did that while a commissioner with one month left in office by making county taxpayers indebted to the tune of $40M bond for a pork barrel project.

"Stop the Spending Spree" – spending was something Thibault was quite good at while a Commissioner by building an overly large Youth Intervention Center and making the county taxpayers indebted with the CC/hotel.
