He is the perfect choice because of his knowledge of the THE DELAWARE STATE issues affecting Newark and the state and his dedication to public service. We know Paul as a proven, experienced community leader EDUCATION ASSOCIATION who will work very hard to maintain the quality of life in Newark. ALLIANCE FOR SCHOOL CHOICE He is a bright, dynamic new leader who will be a strong, effective State Representative who will represent all of the people of DELAWARE FRATERNAL Newark. We look forward to working with him. ORDER OF POLICE Please join us in supporting CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS Paul Pomeroy on November 2nd." ASSOCIATION OF DELAWARE CATHERINE SOLES POMEROY 204 DALLAM ROAD NOTTINGHAM MANOR NEWARK, DELAWARE October 28, 2004 Dear Neighbors, It feels strange to write to you as a group when I have known so many of you since I was a young child, growing up in Nottingham Green. Others of you I have met as an adult through the various community organizations we are involved with and during my husband's campaign for state representative. I wish I could write each of you an individual letter to tell you why I think you should vote for Paul, but that would be impossible. I hope you will take a few minutes to read this and learn more about Paul. Though Paul is a Republican and I am a Democrat, we share the same values and the same core beliefs. We both reject discrimination is all of its many forms. We both are committed to raising our son to respect others' opinions, lifestyles and choices. We both believe that all children have the right to excellent education in safe schools. We both believe that all people have the right to adequate healthcare. We both believe that women have the right to choice. And we believe that the government must play an important role in ensuring these rights. As lifelong Delawareans, Paul and I share a vision for Delaware's future, a vision that I am sure most of you share, as well. We want a Delaware with one of the strongest public education systems in the nation. We see a Delaware with clean air, clean water and plenty of green space. We envision a Delaware with low infant mortality rates, low cancer rates and low AIDS rates. We want a Delaware with a booming economy and great jobs. But Paul can see more than how it can be, he can see how to get us there. Paul knows that a good education results when teachers can teach children to learn, not teach to a test, and that schools are stronger when decisions are made at the school level, not by administrators in another building. Paul can tell you how public policy can protect the environment and our health while still supporting business, and that they in fact go hand-in-hand. Paul knows that we must explore the promise of stem cell research if we are to find cures for the incapacitating diseases that afflict far too many people, including my mother. Paul understands what steps must be taken right away to ensure that our shared vision will happen. Paul and I love Delaware, and we love Newark. We have made a lifetime commitm.ent to this community. That is why Paul seeks to represent us as state representative - to help protect and shape the future of Newark for all of us. I hope you will vote for him and for our future this coming Tuesday. Thank you. ~ Catherine Soles Pomeroy Paul, Catherine and son, Paul.

  • Delaware Agricultural Statistics Service, for His Hard Work in Designing, Implementing, Evaluating This Study and Preparing It for Publication
    Dear Friend of Delaware Agriculture: I am very pleased and proud to present the results of the 2004 Delaware Equine Study, the first ever comprehensive study of this important segment of our agricultural industry. I want to thank Governor Ruth Ann Minner, the Delaware General Assembly, the racing commissions, and the Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund for providing the funding for this project. I also want to thank the Delaware Equine Council for their help and each and every person who voluntarily participated in this very important study. As clearly shown by the numbers contained within this report, the equine industry’s importance to Delaware’s economy is significant and growing. In addition to the expenditures Delaware equine owners and operations make into the state economy, our racetracks, equine show and competition facilities, breeding, training, and boarding operations attract thousands from outside of Delaware who also expend significantly into our state economy. Not only does the industry directly provide jobs for thousands of Delawareans, but also indirectly through expenditures made for feed and bedding, veterinarian services, equipment, grooming and tack supplies, maintenance and repair and other sectors of the industry’s infrastructure. Equine and equine operations make significant contributions to the quality of life in Delaware by keeping land in open space, and providing a wide diversity of recreational activities available to the general public. As spectators or participants, countless Delawareans enjoy equine racing, shows and competitions, pony rides, trail and pleasure riding, and much more. For many, the view of Delaware from atop a horse is the best one. I know firsthand how important equines are and have been socially and recreationally to my family and to the quality of life of many others in Delaware.

  • Understanding the 2016 Gubernatorial Elections by Jennifer M
    GOVERNORS The National Mood and the Seats in Play: Understanding the 2016 Gubernatorial Elections By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle With a national anti-establishment mood and 12 gubernatorial elections—eight in states with a Democrat as sitting governor—the Republicans were optimistic that they would strengthen their hand as they headed into the November elections. Republicans already held 31 governor- ships to the Democrats’ 18—Alaska Gov. Bill Walker is an Independent—and with about half the gubernatorial elections considered competitive, Republicans had the potential to increase their control to 36 governors’ mansions. For their part, Democrats had a realistic chance to convert only a couple of Republican governorships to their party. Given the party’s win-loss potential, Republicans were optimistic, in a good position.
