Thank You, Franklin
I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the residents of Franklin for the support, trust, and encouragement you've shown me throughout this election. Winning a seat on the Town Council is a humbling honor, and I am committed to serving every resident—whether you voted for me or not—with integrity, compassion, and fairness.
To those who placed your trust in me, thank you. I will continue to be the person you elected: someone who listens, advocates, and works hard to represent our shared values. To those who did not vote for me, I want you to know I am here for you too. I hope to earn your trust through my actions and dedication.
Regardless of outcome, I want to thank everyone who took the time to vote. Local elections are the foundation of good governance. If we are not strong locally, we cannot be strong at the state or federal level. True civic engagement begins at home—with each of us showing up, speaking out, and participating.
Congratulations to all who won seats on the Council. We may not agree on every issue, but we share a commitment to Franklin's future. Let's work together to preserve the character and spirit of the town we all love.
To the incumbents who were not re-elected: thank you for your service. We may have disagreed at times, but your years of dedication mattered. Public service is never easy, and your time, effort, and resilience deserve respect.
As we move forward, let's remember: our schools, buildings, and roads are just structures. It's the people who make Franklin what it is. At the end of the day, each and every one of us is Franklin.
With gratitude,
Jane Callaway-Tripp
Franklin Town Councilor
