It was a terrific day for Newtown today, as winners in the Nov. 4 elections were sworn into office by Lt Gov. Susan Bysiewicz in a ceremony at Edmond Town Hall. The Newtown High School Choir sand beautifully; our Poet Laureate Lauren Clifford commenorated the occasion … and everyone promised to get to work.
Michelle Embree Ku for State Representative, 106th District!
Michelle won the Democratic Party endorsement May 26th at open caucus.
Thanks to the 460 Democrats who came out and voted!
Visit Michelle on the web at KuIsForYou.com.
Follow her campaign to be our next state representative!
If affordability is the crisis, why vote against every solution?
Watch what happens when bills to lower costs actually reach the floor:
X Child care support? Voted NO.
X Working-class tax relief? Voted NO.
X School supply tax holidays? Voted NO.
X Local community and school funding? Voted NO.
You cannot champion affordability while blocking the relief families need most.

Every single day, Michelle Embree Ku is working alongside neighbors to make Newtown stronger, cleaner, kinder, and more connected. From supporting marathon water stations and invasive-plant and trash cleanups, to food drives, kids’ science fairs, Earth Day expos, and community coffee talks, Michelle believes campaigns should be about community.
She’s proud to spend time with organizations and volunteers who make a difference every day—including the Salvation Army, Hearths of Hope, Girl Scouts, Newtown Parks & Recreation, and the Newtown Senior Center just to name a few.
Because when we come together, there’s no limit to what Newtown can be: a community where families feel supported, seniors feel valued, young people can grow, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Michelle Embree Ku isn’t just running a campaign. She’s building a grassroots movement rooted in community, service, and a stronger Newtown for all. Vote Michelle Embree Ku November 3.
