Blight Legality Becomes Topic
During the
Connecticut alliance meeting held at the Whinstone Restaurant last evening,
with all the speeches given by the dignitaries finally, Erin Stewart was
introduced to the crowd as the candidate for mayor for the city of New
Britain.
She introduced
her running mates stating that they are a mixture of the community, Democrats,
Republicans, Unaffiliated, and Independents.
During the evening she had heard many comments referring to Mayor
O'Brien's Blight law that has no legal merit for enforcement. Therefore, Erin took advantage of citing her
feelings on the blight issue by her "saying the only blight in the city of New Britain
is at City Hall."

Stag Arms Plans Move of 108 Jobs To Horry County SC or Houston Texas!
They were pushed out of state By Gov. Malloy with his gun restrictions laws. 51 Jobs lost to Conn and to the unions since they are right work state where they settle.
RENTER BEWARE IF YOUR RE-ELECT O'BRIEN'S SLATE!
Mayor Timothy O'Brien has passed several new ordinances and fees that will increase
costs for landlords who provide affordable housing for you and your neighbors.
landlord will pass along their increased costs in the form of increased rent and
nobody can afford rent increases right now.
Timothy O'Brien has told you that policies are anti-blight ordinances, NOT TRUE!
If this were true, these fees would only be collected from blighted properties, not
from all landlords who don't live in their rental buildings. You don't live in a
blighted building, so why should your landlord have to pass these increased costs
on to you? This is a money grab that will be paid by the tenants of New Britain.
Did you know that the Mayor made a sweetheart deal on his licensing tax with
the biggest out-of-town landlord represented by a lawyer who is a political friend
of the Mayors; they will pay less per unit than a 3-family landlord. Why?
Your life may be at risk because of O'Brien's 9-1-1 fine ... and the city expects to
collect 2 million dollars this year from it, it's in the city budget! Why would any
sane person want to fine someone for calling for help?
On November 5th, you can vote to remove the Mayor that created these ordinances
and help to keep housing affordable in New Britain. Your landlord should not be forced
to raise your rent because Timothy O'Brien has increased the cost of providing rental
housing to New Britain residents.

The Adverse Political Scene in New Britain
FRANKSMITHSAYSNB
EDITORIAL
Unfortunately,
information has surfaced that a former mayor and his cohorts are going around
the Broad Street area, commonly known for its polish heritage, advising all who would listen to their
fabrications that the Republican candidate is too young to run the city as
Mayor.
Historically,
Democrats here in New Britain are known, to bend the truth with an outright
fabrication without hesitation, in support for their carpetbagger mayor whose
work history is very limited of being a food bagger at a grocery store.
The twenty six year old Erin Stewart has
earned a degree from CCSU compared to O’Brien’s who didn’t finish his first
semester.
She has lived in New Britain all of her life and loves the
city.
O’Brien proudly accepted the endorsement, together with some
members of his slate, form Bertha Lewis the president of The Working Family
party and infamous Acorn Organization known for election corruption.

CPOA announces plans for debate
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sept 11, 2013, New Britain, CT - The
Citizen’s Property Owner’s Association of New Britain has announced their plans
to hold it’s first ever debate for Mayoral candidates Timothy O’Brien and Erin
Stewart on Sunday, October 20th. “Our organization is dedicated to educating
the public on issues of concern among property owners and taxpayers in the city
of New Britain” said Catherine Cheney, the organization’s Events Chair. “A
debate is the perfect way to allow both candidates to speak directly to the
public.”
Cheney says the CPOA has already
secured a location and a date for the event. “All we are waiting on is
confirmation from both candidate’s campaigns. Invitations were sent out earlier
this week.” The proposed debate would be in two parts. The first would be a
traditional debate where candidates will answer moderated questions and the
second would be more of a town hall style meeting, with candidates answering audience
questions.
“We have a bipartisan panel drafting
questions for the moderated debate session and no candidates for office who are
members of the CPOA are involved in drafting or approving those questions.”
Cheney said. “Our goal is the have a fair and open debate.
When asked how this debate will
contrast with the League of Women Voter’s Debate, Cheney cited a few
differences. “Our debate will be fully open to all broadcast media. We also
will allow candidate campaigns to record and use the debate footage, with a few
restrictions. Additionally, our combination of traditional moderated debate and
town hall questioning means the candidates will have to respond directly to
actual voters and think on their feet.”
