Kayyem: Not A Typical Candidate

As college students and young people, we have an interest in supporting responsible leaders who have creative solutions to longstanding problems and the acumen to carry them through. That’s why we support Juliette and share her vision for the future of Massachusetts.

This coming November, for the first time since 2002, Deval L. Patrick ’78 will not be on the ballot as a candidate. We must continue the progress of the Patrick administration. We can’t step back now. Beacon Hill needs a courageous leader, and Juliette Kayyem—the only candidate focused on real progressive reforms and challenging the status quo on issues that affect the most marginalized—is the best candidate for the job.

This Saturday registered Democrats living in a freshman dorm or Adams House will be eligible to attend the Ward Seven caucus. Please consider joining us in caucusing for Kayyem and demonstrating that the contest for governor is anything but a two-way race.
