Richard, this was your quote in the article They dashed for the dough from 5/8/18:

"Several politicians were there for the photo op. Joe Solomon Sr. was one of them. Insiders have said he will be a candidate for Mayor of Warwick. Rumor is that he will announce shortly."

"Solomon has confirmed he will be running for a full term as mayor once that election occurs, but he does not seem to have big plans for campaigning at this time – instead focusing on the tasks at hand." May 3, 2018. (http://warwickonline.com/stories/solomon-prepares-for-bumpy-road-ahead,133636?)

You even commented on that article???? Did you read it?

“I was there too. I already am a Democratic candidate for Mayor of Warwick and I announced several months ago. “

So what? Are you waiting for a gold star or something? Not even relevant to the issue.

“Sunday, I donated personal money to A-T and I also participated in the race. I even surprised myself when I was able to finish. I came in 208th. There is a big difference between Joe and me. He will show up just for the pictures. I will show up to participate. The voters will decide what kind of Mayor they prefer."

The big difference is you ran in the race and Mr. Solomon bought raffle tickets. Are you saying your participation is better than the other? So everyone that bought tickets but didn’t run didn’t participate? I wouldn’t be able to run in the race due to health issues. Would that mean my purchase of raffle tickets wasn’t considered as important as your donation and race? Interesting.

I don’t think I prefer the Mayor to make comments like you did in this article. That would be my preference.
