Raynham votes Tuesday

“We’re not a PAC. We’re not your neighbor who brings up mill rates over burgers. We’re a blog that’s read too many override proposals, spent too many sleepless nights assaulted by risk mitigation plans, seen too many tornado charts cry, and know exactly when someone’s cooking the books with Canva.”
