"According to the U.S. Census, verified by The Warwick Beacon..."

This erroneous figure by the make-believe mayor was never "verified" by the Beacon; it was attributed to the make-believe mayor but never confirmed independently by the newspaper.

"5,800 people moved OUT of Warwick in the last ten years."

As the information provided in a comment above proves, this is a false statement. Here is the link -- again -- that shows a reduction in Warwick's population from 82,670 to 81,579 between 2010 and 2017, or 1,091 -- not 5,800:

"How else would you explain how our student population crashed from 17,000 to 8,500?"

The numbers presented by the make-believe mayor are false on many counts.

First, that change, from 17,000 to 8,500, would equate to a population drop of 8,500 -- not 5,800.

Second, the school population has not fallen by half in 10 years -- that drop occurred over 40+ years:

Here is the relevant quote from that article: "In the early 1970s Warwick enrolled about 19,000 students in its public schools, said School Supt. Philip Thornton. Today [2017] they number less than 9,000, he said."

Third, the figure of 8,500 provided by the make-believe mayor is factually incorrect. According to the RI Department of Education, the district has a current enrollment of 9,124: http://infoworks.ride.ri.gov/district/warwick

"[T]ell us all what you would do instead."

I and thousands of honest, taxpaying voters in Warwick will overwhelmingly reject the make-believe mayor's lie-filled campaign.
