VIDEO: Kids Get Their Feet Wet in Tewksbury Politics
Despite not being able to vote, some kids get excited and come out for the election.
Elections aren't just for those old enough to vote as dozens of kids turn out alongside their parents to cheer on their man this election day.

I'm waiting for the latest numbers but I think we're looking at a pretty strong turnout for a municipal election. This could mean some very close races. A lot of folks, who might not otherwise vote in a municipal election, have come out to vote on the sewer issue. Turnout should be well over 20 percent but we'll know more shortly ... ill post the latest numbers on the blog.

I am always amazed how few people vote every election, although the last two have been pretty contentious and double or more the usual 10% turnout. People from other countries turn out in droves to make their voices heard. Now with connected town and former town officials looking to change our current form of government including the stoppage of Town Meeting, you will lose your voice, forever.
