Recently there was a letter in the Watertown Daily Times written by a fellow veteran of two different wars. The letter was written by Wayne R. Gibbs. He had concerns as to state Sen. Patricia Ritchie not responding to his correspondence. Sen. Ritchie does not answer my emails as well.

It’s not just Sen. Ritchie who is neglecting to respond to answer our emails and even letters. It’s the norm all across the spectrum of government from local, state and federal levels. In my generation, when I was brought up and raised, one in office wouldn’t even think of not responding to any type of communications sent to them for either help or an answer.

My vote didn’t return ex-Sen. Darrel Aubertine to office just because of him not responding to or even answering my letters and emails. At the moment I’m leaning to the lady from Oswego County.
