The Worcester telegram reports
that the Southbridge group calling itself “We The People” has obtained the
required number of certified signatures to have its plan to return to a
selectmen/town meeting form of government placed on the June ballot.
Town Clerk Madaline Daoust said that of the 705
signatures turned in, 587 had been certified. That was 18 more than the 569
required as mandated by the Town Charter. The charter sets the threshold as 5%
of the registered voters at the time of last regular town election.
