Vacant seats were offered to the public at Trump event at The Sharon

To the Editor:

Your reporting of invitation-only to be allowed to enter the Sharon Center is NOT ACCURATE.
Yes, it was announced as invitation-only but with additional vacant seats, the public was allowed to enter The Sharon without an invitation. My wife and I sat right in front of The Sharon and watched hundreds of people without invitations go threw the SCREENING process in front of the theater then allowed to enter The Sharon.
We could have gone inside but decided to enjoy those in the square instead.  As for the letter from Daniel Andrews criticizing the event just showed his ignorance of life events. So glad he is not my neighbor.
