Don Holdren Calls it Quits???

A letter to the editor appeared in yesterday's Daily Times authored by Mr. Holdren indicating his withdrawl from the District Three race for City Council. This was followed by another short article in the Worcester Times today restating the same information.

Yet as of this afternoon, Mr. Holdren has not officially withdrawn his name from the race as required by law. He visited City Hall, but apparently did not elect to officially resign from the race.

Perhaps it was an oversight or a time constraint issue. At any case, the former Councilman needs to make it official. For whatever reason, Mr. Holdren decided he was not up to the task at hand. I respect his decision, but now it is time to "officially" move on and allow the remaining candidates in the race (Councilman Bruce Morrison & newcomer Angela Hayes) to act accordingly.
