We have never endorsed candidates in local elections, which are non-partisan, as you know. However, this year is different. The stakes are higher. The prospect of a majority of Select Board members who appear eager to bring the Trump agenda to our town is both worrisome and all too real. Five Republican candidates are running for Select Board and another for School Committee.
We hope you will join us in voting for Gardner Trask and Dan Bennett for Select Board and Gabe Lopes for School Committee on May 6.
These individuals are proven community leaders who reflect our Democratic values: fairness, inclusion, responsible government, and a deep affection for and commitment to Danvers. They are experienced, thoughtful leaders, who have shown that they can listen, collaborate and lead effectively.
In a local election, every single vote matters. We urge you to make a plan to vote on Tuesday May 6 for Gardner Trask, Dan Bennett, Gabe Lopes and our full slate of candidates who will serve Danvers with integrity and vision.
Early voting is on Saturday, April 26.
