WDTC at the John Bailey Dinner
The Woodbridge Democrats celebrated Democratic statewide victories at the John Bailey Dinner with guest speaker Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, a thousand Democrats, and our entire delegation…
Congratulations to Woodbridge Democratic Slate of Candidates!
This election serves a a reminder to all of us that every vote counts. While the Democratic margins of victory were high in many of the races, the First Selectman race came down to just 8 votes…
LTE: Let’s Call a Spade a Spade
We have repeatedly heard that the Common Ground slate is neither beholden to nor aligned with any political party or entity at the local, state, or national levels. But is this the full story? The slate is endorsed by the Woodbridge Republican Town Committee (WRTC), and the campaign has non-Woodbridge individuals, including the Campaign Chair and Treasurer, with extensive experience running Republican campaigns across Connecticut….
LTE: Real Property Tax Phase-In Redistributes the Tax Burden But Is No Free Lunch
I read with disdain a recent letter from Javier Avilés and Scot Prudhomme criticizing First Selectman Mica Cardozo for not phasing in taxes after last year’s state-mandated property revaluation.

In our first two installments, we explored the town’s executive leadership and the school boards shaping education. But town government is much more than just our chief executive, legislative body, and school boards.

If you’re a parent, chances are you’ve heard of Beecher Road School or the Amity Regional School District. But who actually oversees them? And how do local elections impact the education your children receive?
How Does Woodbridge Actually Work? Let’s Talk Who Leads Our Town
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What exactly does the First Selectman do?” - you’re not alone.
Most of us moved to Woodbridge for what we love about it: the open space, the schools, the sense of community. But few of us arrive with a deep understanding of how town government works, especially the roles we see on our ballots every couple of years…
