Congratulations to Mayor Matt Driscoll.
I believe the Democratic primary campaign raised issues that are crucial to the survival of our City. I was honored to have participated in that process.
I thank all my campaign volunteers, in particular, Kay Benedict Sgarlata, Campaign Chair, whose political and civic insights shaped the campaign’s policy and programs. Financial responsibility, neighborhood schools and metropolitan consolidation will be part of the debate in the balance of the mayoral campaign.
I also thank all the Democrats who participated. When we vote, we send a powerful message to the world that our democracy is strong, that our City has the will to preserve our freedoms.
