                                                             2010 Survey Results

 
Each year for many many years Senator Bill Doyle has distributed a informal, non-scientific survey at Town Meetings throughout
the State. I tallied the surveys from Jericho, Underhill and Bolton, and Senator Doyle tallied the state wide results.  The 4th grade
classes at Jericho Elementary School studied the legislative process and visited the State House this year.  They inviterd me to
visited their classes and they shared their studies and asked lots of questions.  The also took Sen. Doyle's survey and I also
posted their results.
