Mayor Jesse Warren’s opponents have made this election needlessly complicated. Voters need only focus on a few simple issues and determine which candidate has better addressed them. Jesse Warren is the obvious choice.

He lowered property taxes for the first time in 20 years.

He cleaned Lake Agawam with nearly $1 million in awarded grants, which improved our environment without costing the taxpayer even a dollar.

He ushered the village through the COVID-19 pandemic, even as the number of year-round residents dramatically increased.

He updated the comprehensive village plan for the first time in 20 years and has begun the process of installing a sewer system.

He revitalized the downtown and brought vibrancy back to once-vacant streets.

The vicious smear campaign launched against him is a last-resort attempt to distract voters from his unprecedented number of accomplishments in just two short years.
