Wright casts every possible vote

Press release from state Rep. Chris Wright, a Bristol Democrat:

REP. WRIGHT CASTS A VOTE ON ALL 271 VOTES TAKEN IN THE STATE HOUSE
State Representative Christopher Wright (D-Bristol ) did not miss a vote taken in the state House of Representative this year and voted on the 271 votes taken during the session.
According to the Clerk of the House, the 2010 individual records reflect a total number of 271 votes were taken for the 2010 Regular Session, The June 21, 2010 Veto Session and the June 21, 2010 Special Session.
“I was pleased to learn that I was present and voted on the 271 votes taken in the House,” Rep. Wright said. “While, I strive to be on hand for all debates and votes, sometimes there are circumstances beyond any legislator’s control that prevents a vote, like an illness or a serious family matter.”
“I will continue to strive to be able to vote on all issues and hope no unforeseen events prevent me from doing just that,” Rep. Wright said.
“Rep. Wright’s 100 percent voting record is evidence of the seriousness with which he takes his job as a state representative,” said House Speaker Christopher G. Donovan (D-Meriden). “I congratulate Chris on his dedication to representing his constituents on the many important issues they care about.”
Rep. Wright is in his first term in the General Assembly and serves on the Insurance, Housing and Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committees.

He votes as he is told usually..occassionally he goes off the Union reservation and gets his head handed to him.

This year will be a re match between Jill Fitzgerald and Wrongway Wright

Daddy got him a job at St. Francis that he can't get fired from because daddy is Dumb-o-crat lobbyist (aka scam artist).

The man is doing the job he was elected for and all he does is get kicked in the pants for it. I know not everyone likes politicians, but I will not paint every politician with the same brush and I believe it is unfair to do so. No wonder people hate to go into politics. It's the idiots on this blog that make it impossible for anyone who is trying to help the citizens of this city even cut a break. I would like to see any one of you empty skulls attempt to run for office or even stand up in front of lots of people and intelligently state what you believe and what your constituents want. Go back to the holes you crawled out of!

Are you sure that Jill is running?

Haven't seen or heard her do anything.

Will she have to give up the state job she got?

Jill is most certainly running this year and will be replacing Chris Wrong.

4:21: prove it!!! give me some examples and prove Mr. Wright wrong. It's easy to say he hasn't done anything but it's another to back it up with facts. I'm not saying I'm crazy about the guy but it's not fair to paint every politician with the same brushstroke.

St. Francis is laying off people. I'll bet Wright's Patient Information Clerk position is safe, although he's hanging out at the LOB all day.
