Dear Friends and Neighbors,

On August 11th, 20th District Democratic voters will have an important choice to make.

Our endorsed Democratic candidate, Sherry Haller, has the passion, experience, dedication, and commitment to be a strong voice for us at the General Assembly. Sherry is known for her integrity and honesty and, as a lifelong resident of West Hartford, she understands our community and cares deeply about our working families and our town. Sherry has dedicated her professional life advocating at the State Capitol for justice reform, public safety, and opportunities for our youth and working families to grow and thrive. As a breast cancer survivor, she is deeply aware of the need for quality health care. Sherry is known as a strong listener and consensus-builder and will work tirelessly on our behalf.

Signed,

Carol A. Blanks (Town Councilwoman and Former Chair of the West Hartford Board of Education)
