The town clerk in Coventry, Vermont has been re-elected to another term even tho she faces tax evasion charges for the past several years.

Before she became town clerk she was also charged with embezzling $20Gs from her former employer.

Those charges were dropped after she was caught and paid the money back

theft and embezzlement is okay as long as you pay the money back and apologize?

Hmmm, no mention of party affiliation. Could it be she is a democrat?

Why hold municipal elected officials to a higher standard than congress? Shoulda voted her out for not thinking big enough.

Those Vermonters tend to be a very cloistered bunch. Don’t like being told what to do. Don’t like folks not born within 5 miles of town center. Don’t like the Government and don’t trust the law.

In Texas, people that steal like this are thrown in state prison for a long time (one case involved stealing from a school PTA and I believe another recent trial was concluded where some woman was stealing from the Boy Scouts of America... she set up some sham company and was paying bogus invoices with a BSA credit card).

I guess some of the Commies up in VT don't care when their money gets stolen... it is just community property to them.

VT... you could do so much better... maybe you should start by getting rid of your 2 loser U.S. senators?

Recently several people from Dallas city hall were found guilty of corruption. State Legislator Terri (?) Hodge among them.

My dad was born in Coventry. It is about the size of a postage stamp. I cannot imagine that anyone else wanted to run for the job. These little Vermont towns are quirky to say the least.

These are the same people who voted for an avowed socialist (Sanders) and a man who was thrown off the Senate intelligence committee for leaking (Leahy). What did you expect from these morons?

Sounds like a democrat. Democrats break all sorts of laws and rise within the ranks of the democrat party.

Yeah, I see it’s in the Northeast Kingdom, just a little south of Lake Memphremagog.

Where the rivers flow north. Beautiful country, but it’s it’s own place. She probably stole the money from a flatlander.

All VT people like their liberal cousins elsewhere know to do is keep the man (woman) they now have. It has to be someone they have heard of to get their vote.

They do seem to lack the basic common sense of a Coolidge, don’t they?
