I resign....or maybe not...

Vice Chairman T. Ripley left a brief letter of resignation tonight with his fellow selectmen: "I resign from my position on the board, effective immediately."

Now, if you wanted to fool people into thinking you had resigned, sort of, wouldn't that be a great way to keep people from going out to vote in a recall election that had you as one of the people on the ballot for recall? And maybe in the bargain, the voters would vote the other guy out but forget to vote one way or the other on you?

Be very clear on this, Paris voters: there is a recall election with Troy Ripley's name on the ballot, as well as Ray Glover's name, Friday Feb. 5th.

Go. And. Vote.

There is another recall vote Monday Feb. 1st, with David Ivey's name, as well as Skip Herrick's.

Go. And. Vote. Both days.

Or, vote absentee ballot at the town office, pick your day.

Please pay close attention to which name you are checking which box for.
