89th Convention
It doesn't look like I'll be getting the party endorsement tomorrow (May 16) at Prospect Town Hall at 7pm. So here's a quick recap on how I expect the convention to break down:
Prospect: 6 delegates
Cheshire: 5 delegates
Bethany: 4 delegates
That's 15 delegates and 8 wins. And with the 6 Prospect delegates (I believe) committed to Kergaravat and 2 Bethany delegates supporting him, that means he wins the convention. But that's only 15 people. And there are ~4100 registered Republicans in the 89th.
And according to the Courant, Lamont and Lieberman will have a primary.
Tim White
State Representative candidate (89th)

Another important convention is 7pm Wednesday at the Southington Elks Hall. Let's all help Sammy Caligiuri be the new voice we need in the State Senate!
Get geared up for a primary. That is too close of a split not to primary. Let the voters of the district decide. You will get more name recognition in the other towns if you primary.
I wrote this 2 months ago, and I'll say it again.
If the Republicans are smart, they'll nominate Tim White for the 89th Assembly seat. He's the Republicans' best shot of winning this seat in November.
I live in the Mixville area, bordering Prospect. Tim White has shown up on my doorstep several times to ask my views on town issues -- once when it wasn't even an election year!
His active outreach to all voters is why he gets re-elected in this heavily Democratic district (4th Cheshire) without compromising his conservative fiscal positions.
Frankly, Mr. Kergaravat had his chance two years ago, and should have won this strongly Republican 89th.
This shouldn't be a Cheshire-versus-Prospect issue either. If Prospect Republicans are smart, they'll see Tim White's WINABILITY as their best chance to help Prospect as well as the whole 89th.
PS: Mr. White, by all means primary! It will make you an even stronger candidate going into November!
John K... thanks so much. I can't thank you enough.
Blue... yeah... I agree... top ticket offices will have an impact on voter awareness.
