Hello PaulHuff:

Thank you for outlining the stark differences between Mayor Avedisian and the make-believe mayor, and Acting Mayor Solomon's chances for an easy primary win over him.

I would also point out another unfortunate distinction of the make-believe mayor: His lack of restraint in humiliating himself by repeatedly posting false statements:

- "I spent 700 days campaigning and $40,000 of my own money getting that message out to the 80,000 taxpayers that are paying the tab and it worked!"

False. The make-believe mayor lost the 2016 mayoral race, 65% to 35%. His message did not work. There are not 80,000 taxpayers in Warwick -- and, in light of another false statement of his, that 5,800 taxpayers "left" in the last decade, he is contradicting his previous lies with more lies

- "[W]hen you tried to introduce 29 tax-increasing amendments to the 2017 budget..."

False. Mayor Avedisian did not introduce amendments to the FY18 budget -- the city council did. And the city council's budget raised spending by $6.5 million while counting on an unrealistic 99-percent tax collection rate -- which has resulted in a $4.2 million operating deficit going into FY19.

These facts have been repeated to the make-believe mayor multiple times, proving yet another defect in his character that honest, taxpaying voters will keep in mind when they reject his candidacy: His unwillingness to correct his many false statements.

From: Avedisian submits no tax increase budget
