Challenger Rappa, who says, “I live on leased land and have never worked for landowners,” alleges she can be more effective in the House because she would be joining a Democratic-controlled House. “I understand the leased-land issues. I’m tired of my home being called a car. Manufactured homes need to be changed from titles to deeds,” she noted. She is concerned that available resources in Sussex will not match the needs of the aging senior population that will triple by the year 2030. Briggs King defeated Democratic challenger Beth McGinn, also an MHC resident, in the Nov. 2012 election, as MHProNews reported Nov. 4, 2012. ##
