The cover of Wednesday, November 7, 2007, Journal Inquirer
Intrepid Journal Inquirer reporter Kim Phillips had an article in today’s JI about Election Day for Manchester Republicans, which has yet to be posted online. Quotes from the piece:
“Republican candidates for the Board of Directors turned their party’s self-described “majority of three” into a majority of five Tuesday, as they squeaked out a 5-4 control of the town’s governing body for the first time since 1989.”
“But the appearance of a victory - especially in a town where Democrats outnumber Republicans almost 2-1 - made Republicans euphoric.”
“We did it!” Republican Town Committee Chairman Wallace Irish Jr. shouted to hollers of approval. “It’s a humbling experience to come from where we’ve come from.”
