Letter To The Editor: McCarthy Vahey Knows How To Represent 133rd

To the editor,

We urge our fellow residents of the 133rd General Assembly District in Fairfield to re-elect Cristin McCarthy Vahey as our state representative.

We have come to know Cristin not through politics or campaign events, but through her constant presence and leadership in our community. Whether at a school event, a PTA meeting or on the sidelines of a baseball game, Cristin’s dedication to our community is apparent because she genuinely listens to her constituents as an active part of our community. We recall one occasion in particular when, after an all-nighter working on a budget at the state Capitol in Hartford, Cristin was back in the community for little league baseball with her fellow residents the next day. Cristin represents Fairfield so well not only because she is a tireless advocate, but also because she is personally engaged in and understands the needs of our community firsthand.

Particularly during these challenging times, when we are not only facing a pandemic, but when faith in our government and our institutions is at an inflection point, we need a leader like Cristin to represent our town — someone who will work across party lines to do the right thing, in the right way, and for the right reasons.

So, please vote — and please join us in re-electing Cristin McCarthy Vahey as our state representative for the 133rd District.

Steve and Alina Reynolds
