MANCHESTER, N.H. – On Tuesday, IBEW Local 490 endorsed Jim O’Connell as their choice for Executive Council District 4, citing O’Connell’s work ethic and record of delivering results for working families as the key to their decision.
The men and women of Local 490 are proud to stand with Jim O’Connell as our next Executive Councilor for District Four,” said IBEW Local 490 Business Manager Eric Batchelor. “Our members rely on their state government to focus on achieving tangible results and to make our state competitive, create opportunity, and foster a positive environment for job creation. No one in this race has done more to deliver on that promise than Jim O’Connell.”
