Tod was introduced by his daughter Kristen who, among other kind words, said “My family has always believed in the importance of contributing to the common good. It is the spirit of mutual support and shared responsibility that makes our community so special. As we look to the future, we remain committed to these values.”

Fred Camillo stated “Tod knows the district, he grew up here, he’s been a student of government and he has a passion to want to give back.”

Former Vice-Chair of the Greenwich RTC, Joe Montanaro also spoke before inviting Tod to the podium. Speaking about Tod he noted, “I have learned that behind his cool, calm, and jovial demeanor there is an intense fire that burns with his patriotic love for our country and his American-Italian heritage. Tod will take that patriotism and passion to Hartford.”

Tod gave a rousing campaign speech in front of the fully engaged crowd. He said “We need to return to common sense. The avenue to achieve this is communication. I will represent you all. You are not just constituents. You are friends and neighbors.”

Tod has previously served in public office as the Greenwich Tax Collector where he was elected to four terms. He also served on the Greenwich RTM for 14 years where he was on the Transportation Committee and the Parks & Recreation Committee. Tod served as a St. Catherine of Siena representative on the Greenwich Catholic Board of Education for 11 years.

Tod’s campaign website, VoteForTod.com, has a declaration of intent from Tod on one of his main goals once being elected into State Office:

Dear Establishment Republicans, We're Tired of Your "Bipartisanship"

Image
  Screenshot (Public Domain) Bipartisanship, the concept of both political parties working together towards common goals, is often seen as a key component of a functioning democracy. In a state like Connecticut, where the political landscape is largely dominated by Democrats, the idea of bipartisanship only benefits one side of the aisle. This is because bipartisanship tends to work in favor of the party that holds power, which in Connecticut's case, is the Democratic Party. Despite the intentions of bipartisanship to promote compromise and cooperation between parties, it always leads to unequal outcomes and favoritism of the Democrat agenda. One of the main reasons why bipartisanship always works in favor of Connecticut Democrats is the sheer number of Democratic representatives in the state legislature. With Democrats holding a majority in both the state House and Senate, they have more power to push their agenda and initiatives through, even with some bipartisan support. This ...

Trump Debates ABC News Democrat Operatives

Image
  Screenshot (abcnews.com) Millions of Americans and the world tuned in last night to watch the very first and perhaps the only debate between former President Doanld Trump and VP Kamala Harris in Philadelphia. The debate was "moderated" by ABC "journalists" David Muir and Lindsey Davis.  Kamala And ABC Hosts Lie At Debate  Read Before the actual debate started, Trump set the tone by having Harris walk over to his podium to shake his hand. Within the first ten minutes, viewer knew exactly how this debate was going to play out. Trump was debating three people: Harris, Muir and Davis. It was interesting to see but not shocking these so-called moderators were fact checking every word that came out of Trump's mouth. We're pretty sure Trump knew what he was up against last entering the "lion's den." Make no mistake, Muir and Davis are Democrat operatives. Their fact checking follow ups and comments were exaggerations or outright lies. For example, T...

With a Clear Mandate From Millions of Americans, President Trump Elected as 47th President of the United States!

Image
  Screenshot (KTLA 5) I f you were like many Americans yesterday you went out and voted, then kept your eyes on the TV or your device to get the minute-by-minute score on the Trump Vs Kamala scoreboard of states. Like many of you, we debated which every possible path to 270 electoral votes that President Trump has to the ones that Kamala Harris did not. We watched in excitement and nervousness as some states were shaded light red or were too close to call at the time. One thing we knew for sure; we had faith that Trump would make it across the finish line because Trump has a message that resonates with all of us. Millions of Americans likely stayed up into the wee hours of the night as if watching a movie, you just can’t take your eyes off. The type where you’re waiting for the acme, biting your nails with every passing minute, hoping all those voting stations would close already and call the election for Trump. As with most things, our patience eventually paid off as we watched on...
