Today, Marty Lamb, Republican candidate for State Representative, proudly announced that Craig Hurlbut and Claire Wright will be the town captains for Hopkinton.

“Craig and Claire will make a great team for heading up our efforts in Hopkinton. They will be instrumental in getting my message of restoring our economy and integrity to Beacon Hill and demanding fiscal accountability,” said Lamb. “They helped us win Hopkinton in 2010. I know that they can do it again.”

Last week surrounded by a huge crowd of friends, family, and supporters, Lamb formally launched his campaign for State Representative. As our next State Representative, Lamb wants to improve our economy, restore integrity to the State House, implement Secure Communities in the Commonwealth, and fight for fiscal responsibility.

“I strongly believe that it is time to elect a small business owner who can help revive our economy. That’s why I like Lamb,” said Hurlbut.

Hurlbut has been married for twenty eight years to his wife Paula. They moved to Hopkinton in 1988 and have raised three children, all going through the Hopkinton schools. Craig Hurlbut has his own furniture repair business and has been self-employed for thirty years.

“Last week’s Probation Department indictments show that the corruption continues. Not only do we need balance on Beacon Hill, but we need a new State Representative who will have the courage to fight the status quo,” said Wright.

Wright has served in Hopkinton town government for over 30 yrs. As a 10 yr. elected member of the Planning Board, she says she has seen first-hand the economic downturn's tremendous impact on the local economy. "Projects abandoned, projects delayed, projects never submitted, because the climate for growth is not there" she said. "Things have got to change, starting with this election."

"When we look at the realities, our terrible economy, and how it affects our everyday lives, we see the importance of bringing strong, sensible, pro-growth representation to Beacon Hill, such as Marty Lamb," said Wright. "Marty's focus on economic prosperity and creating opportunities for growth is what we need right now."
Hurlbut and Wright will assist the campaign with organizing leaflet drops and phone banks, sign stand outs, and collecting signatures.
