Statewide Candidates Forum on May 18

I have taken on a new role recently as secretary of the Boston Ward 5 Democratic Committee. It's more work than you think, especially given that the committee is very active. I just put the finishing touches on the notice for the next committee meeting, which is more of an event that's open to the public.

On May 18, Tuesday, the Boston Ward 5 Democratic Committee is hosting a forum for Democratic candidates running for any of the statewide offices in Massachusetts. Those offices include Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer and Auditor. The event will be held at the Boston Architectural College on Newbury Street, at the corner of Newbury and Hereford Streets.

From 6:30 to 7 p.m. on May 18, candidates will have the chance to meet with members of the community. The forum starts at 7. Given how the forum is scheduled, it could be one of the last times the candidates will appear, in some sort of collective form, ahead of the Mass. State Convention in Worcester in early June.

All are invited to attend!
