To the Editor:
You cannot blame people for wondering whether State Senator Art Linares might consider a challenge to Congressman Joe Courtney in the 2016 elections. [“Linares Denies Rumors of Challenge to Courtney in Next Election” Dec. 30]
Consider the following:
· Linares had a strong showing in the recent election, soundly defeating his Democratic challenger.
· Linares is young, bright, and a successful business owner.
· He is active and vocal on issues which affect consumers, such as the recent energy rate hikes.
· He connects well with people of all ages and backgrounds.
· He has shown himself to be extremely responsive to his constituents.
Art Linares represents the future of Connecticut Republicans, and it is a bright future.
I hope he remains our State Senator for a long time, but I wish him success in whatever path he chooses.
Sincerely,
Tom Lindner,
