The Norris Notice


It has been reported today that the town has been flooded with calls complaining of notices put on windshields and sent to homes by Jennifer Stowell Norris. The complaints were in response to the language used in the notices which purport to promote a write in campaign for three candidates. The language includes use of the "f-word", which although not a politically wise choice, is likely protected by the First Amendment.

Unfortunately, as much as we may dislike the message as it has been conveyed, there is nothing that the town can do to prevent it without violating constitutional rights.

Can anyone get a copy and post it here?

anyone brave enough to do a FOIA request on her records?

although military may be exempt from FOIA... not sure.(yet)

hmmm. no military is not exempt. but if it's medical, there are privacy issues, as there should be.

but seeing as she felt so free to do it for a member of the RPD, what's sauce for the gander should certainly be an appropriate sauce for the goose.
