The Mattapoisett Democratic Town Committee will host the first in a series of Speakers’ Forums as we head into the Town’s municipal and general elections season. “So you want to run for Public Office” will be the first, on January 28 from 1- 3 pm in the downstairs public meeting room of the Mattapoisett Library.
The first forum will be moderated by Nicky Osborne, Mattapoisett Representative to the ORR School Committee Frances-Feliz Kearns and Rochester Representative to the ORR School Committee Matt Monteiro. They will be joined by other local elected representatives who will share their pearls of wisdom for what it takes to run and win a successful campaign for any local public office.
The forum will provide a road map for how to get from pulling papers from your local Clerk at the end of January to Election Day. It will provide the tools to encourage those who may have thought about running for public office but weren’t sure how to do it. We have many of the answers.
Please come with a neighbor, family member or friend and bring any questions you might have or just listen in. With the upcoming elections in May and November and candidates needing donations, we are suggesting a $10 donation to Matt Dems for all attendees.
