Maurice “Moe” Green, Republican candidate for State Representative in the November 10 special election in Providence’s House District 10, delivered a Halloween flyer to all 5,000 households in the District, offering “treats, not tricks” if he is elected.
It states, “Will you get tricks or treats on November 10? Give yourself a treat! Elect Moe Green State Representative.” This is accompanied by a picture of Green, and a pumpkin labeled “Honest Leadership”.
The flyer continues, “Elect the other candidates, and you might get the same old tricks!”. This is followed by 3 cartoons: 3 witches stirring a cauldron labeled “Politics As Usual”; a ghost labeled “Bad Schools”; and a black cat behind a pot labeled “Tax And Spend”.
The back side of the flyer tells about Green signing the “Taxpayer Protection Pledge”, which promises that “I will oppose and vote against any and all efforts to raise taxes”. There is a picture of Green signing the “Pledge” in front of Grover Norquist, national President of Americans For Tax Reform.
