The Cost to run for office.

Now I have been mouthing off here for awhile about getting people to run for the Massachusetts General Court, the state legislature as it is referred to in the Commonwealth.

David Linsky, the representative for Natick,Sherborn and Millis won that last election for $19,629. Now granted he has spent $46,000 in one year, but lets face it, most of this is not his.  The man has won five elections for under $200,000.

Think about that.

The Republican Party needs to get in gear.

Lida Harkins, who represents Dover, Neeedham and Medfield has spent almost twice as much as that since she came into office.
