Claire Wright for Selectman: A proven, dedicated leader

Having attended many community events and Board of Selectmen's meetings, I am impressed with Ms. Claire Wright's combination of passion for this community and practicality. She seeks to find common ground, bringing together people on contentious issues. She has a sound vision for the future of Hopkinton, and does especially well helping to balance the varying needs of the town. She is also not afraid to take a stand to protect the interests of Hopkinton.

Her leadership skills were on display at Annual Town meeting, ranging from her impassioned comments in favor of preserving the historic Claflin House to her deep knowledge about a plethora of issues facing the community.

We hope that Hopkinton will extend Chairman Wright in her role as an exemplary leader.

Thanks you,
The O'Briens
