To the editor:

Many Jackson residents were dismayed by a petition circulating that expresses a vote of no confidence for our selectman and wanted to put out a positive statement of support and appreciation for our beleaguered board. When I was asked if I would help circulate the statement, I agreed. Although I don’t always agree with their positions, I do feel the selectmen are working hard for what they see is the best interest of the town. The position is a thankless job; however one should not be hounded by those who want to pursue personal vendettas against particular board members. It is hard enough to find candidates willing to serve such a demanding job. Having to endure personal attacks should not be part of the job description.
