It is time for Michael Deignan to step down from his position as Town Constable.

The constitutional rights of women, minorities, and the LGBTQ community under a Trump presidency will be threatened especially if there are no other branches of government to hold Trump in check.

Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 Election largely due to the actions of FBI Director Comey. This cannot be ignored and must be investigated.

To fulfill Lincoln's desperate desire "that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth." In plain words, not commit national suicide.

The Constitution is a wonder of checks and balance to insure that the power of the Government is used legally. Without Trumps full financial disclosure, the USA is put at risk for many, many dangerous and even treasonous actions that may occur and be kept hidden from Congressional oversight. Also the founders of the Constitution intended the Electoral College to function as a bulwark against fraudulent electoral processes. The failure to properly vet Mr. Trump before the election has created a Constitutional crisis for Congress.

For determining potential conflicts of interest with national security and economic strategy, legislators need to have a full understanding of the implications of a billionaire president's empire, and then pass legislation that sets the ground rules for the president to recuse himself from various decisions and proposals in which there is a conflict of interest.

Signers of this petition want the Democratic Party leaders to know that if they want to count on our contributions, volunteer activities, and votes, they need to respect rank and file participation in the decision making process. These decisions should not be made by a handful of party elites.

The recent election of Donald Trump has produced a huge wave of distress and anxiety both in our own country and around the world. I feel that we, who are not in collusion with the Trumpets, need to speak out now and often, and need to organize and act, now and often. Let us pledge ourselves to action.

On November 8, 2016, New England voted unilaterally for Secretary Hillary Clinton to be President of the United States, either in favor Madam Secretary or simply against President-elect Donald J. Trump. Unlike other parts of the country, in which Trump's win has sparked attacks upon Latinos, Muslims, African-Americans, and the LGBTQ community, New England appears to be in solidarity against the egregious tone Trump's candidacy and subsequent win have set. Currently, New England wanders in a daze, Dresden the day after Hitler was named Chancellor of Germany. Residents of Providence, Rhode Island, have actually been kinder to each other in recent days, bound by fear that our hopes for the future will be stripped and set aflame in mere months. Please allow the states of Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, and - if their citizens and legislators are willing - New York to secede from the United States and form a new Free Republic of New England so that we may peacefully govern ourselves.

Democrat Doug Jones just won the Alabama Senate special election--a stunning rebuke to Trump and the GOP, which had endorsed an accused child sex predator, Roy Moore, as their candidate. Democrats are on offense, and if we all work together to take back the House and Senate in 2018, we can keep Trump and the GOP in check.

The popular vote went to Hillary Clinton. She should be our President. The Electoral College is unconstitutional in that it does not represent the people and denies equal rights. It is also outdated given technology, ability to travel, etc. MoveOn with appropriate plaintiffs (including me) should bring suit for injunctive relief to prohibit the Electoral College from voting on the President. This is urgent, before the Electoral College meets in December.

The last election proves how horrible the two-party system is. As a poly sci major in college, I studied Ranked Choice Voting, and was excited to learn how it could create a multi-party system. Now Maine has adopted this system at the state-wide level, proving it can work. And thanks to the 2016 election, more people than ever are ready to finally end the 2 party system! Lets make 2018 the year the America finally ended the 2 party system. We have to get Ranked Choice Voting on the ballot in more states, to replicate the success in Maine. This is the ONE issue that can unite Independents, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens and even some Conservatives. We all stand to gain by breaking up the 2 party system.
