The League of Women Voters of Newton hosted a forum for the District 3 candidates for Governor’s Council on Thursday, August 15, 2024. The event took place at Newton’s local cable studio (NewTV).
District 3 includes Arlington. The candidates on the ballot for the September 3 primary are Marilyn Petitto Devaney, incumbent, and Mara Dolan, challenger; both are Democrats.
The recording of the 56-minute forum is available on Newton’s cable website. Here is the YouTube link for the forum.
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21
The end of summer means it’s time to get ready for Arlington’s Town Day. LWV Arlington will have a booth at this event that will be packed with information about voter registration, the upcoming election, proposed legislation, precinct maps, League membership, policies, and activities, and other voter service literature. We are looking for volunteers to work in 1- or 2-hour increments from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
This is a great, fast-paced event, with two to three people at the booth at all times, so both seasoned and new League members are welcome to participate. If you can help out, please call Meredith Zona at 781-648-2753, or send an email to her at meredith.zona@stantec.com.
You can find more information on this year’s Town Day on the Town Day page of the Arlington website. We look forward to seeing you on Town Day!
