Re-Elect Toni Boucher*
Experienced. Accomplished. Transparent-ish.
"All financial data will be released once it has completed its emotional journey."
Toni Boucher has served Wilton and Connecticut for decades — Board of Education Chair, Selectman, State Representative Minority Leader, State Senate Chief Deputy Minority Leader, and now Wilton First Selectwoman. That is real public service experience.
And now, Wilton gets to experience something even rarer: a government so dynamic that budgets evolve, positions appear late at night, audits develop suspense, and transparency becomes a treasure hunt.

659 Residents Wrote In. Here's What They Said.
Paraphrased and composite quotes drawn from the Board of Finance's 2026 budget survey and the public-comment portions of recorded town meetings. Names withheld on purpose.
"We just want the numbers. Not spin, not a press release, not 'excellent financial health.' Just the numbers, on time, like every other town."
"I have asked the same question at three meetings. I have gotten three different non-answers. I am starting to think that is the answer."
"My property taxes go up every year. The least I should be able to expect is an audit that gets filed on time."
"I love this town. That's why this is so frustrating. Transparency shouldn't be partisan, and it shouldn't be this hard."
"When residents have to FOIA to find out how their money is being spent, something has gone wrong with the basic contract between a town and its taxpayers."
"I am not anti-anyone. I am pro-knowing-what-is-going-on."

Five Bold Commitments. Four Are Aspirational.
Transparency, Eventually
We believe in transparency. Not necessarily today. Not necessarily before the Board of Finance asks 50 times. But spiritually? Absolutely.
Fiscal Responsibility Through Mystery
Why burden residents with clear financial data when they can enjoy the thrill of discovery?
Budget Speed
We get budgets done fast. Sometimes before all the numbers add up. That's called momentum.
The Aaa Experience
Wilton has a top Moody's rating. Which is great. Let's try not to make the auditors cry — or notice the material weakness, the late audit, the $200K+ interim CFO who doesn't show up to meetings, or the 659 residents who wrote in to say 'get the finances in order.'
The Remote Work Revolution
Why limit your CFO to one town when they could be running two? Wilton proudly pioneered Zoom-Only Leadership™ — a finance department so flexible, our Chief Financial Officer ran our books from 2,000 miles away while simultaneously serving as Town Administrator/Finance Director of Greybull, Wyoming. The First Selectwoman and Town Administrator say they had no idea. The CFO says she told them. Either way: groundbreaking management oversight.
