Tammy Wong-BigelowSchool Committee Member, Waltham, MA
“GoodParty.org is not party-based. I am unenrolled, I don't belong to any party, and I don't think people should be in a box.”
Virginia RyanCity Council Member, Quincy, MA
“The previous city council did not even listen to their constituents. My campaign plan was to make sure they understood that that was not going to be my term as a city council member. I was going to get out there and make sure constituents would hear from me and they would be represented.”
Deborah RileyCity Council Member, Quincy, MA
“The reason that I ran was because my city councilor had no opponent, and he had not had an opponent the time before that. Many of our counselors had no opponents. I started to get fed up with feeling that that's not how democracy is supposed to work. We have a relatively low turnout in our elections, and I think sometimes it's because people just feel like their vote doesn't matter.”
