Daniel Lander’s campaign turned in one thousand signatures from across the district to qualify for the Democratic Primary ballot on Sept. 1st. This ensures that for the first time since 2012, voters will have a real choice in who represents them in the State Senate.
“I am honored that so many people in the district have signed on to ensure voters have a real choice on their ballot on September 1st,” said Daniel Lander, Candidate for State Senate. “People across this district are ready for change and are excited about fighting for a State Senate that will take on the broken status quo, fight for working people, and make Massachusetts more affordable.”
