  50% of Burlington residents are women and 0% of its mayoral candidates. I can’t overstate how demoralizing this is for women of all ages to see over and over again. #vtpoli #btv https://t.co/dnDuYOWDF1

Dave's Corner 💭

Registered Burlington voters are getting ballots send out February 10th to their home for the mayoral election. If you do not receive a ballot by February 19th, you should contact the City Clerk's office.

Random Burlingtonian Quote of the Day 📝

The revolution in scientific ideas just mentioned is primarily logical. It is due to recognition that the very method of physical science, with its primary standard units of mass, space, and time, is concerned with measurements of relations of change, not with individuals as such.

—John Dewey
