We’re happy to release our 2015 Candidate Guide. Please note that the most up-to-date guide will be found on this website – if additional candidates respond or if we have corrections or changes, you’ll find it here!

These questions were developed by the Lowell Votes Education Committee after collecting nearly 100 survey responses that asked residents of Lowell to rank their most important issues and suggest questions to ask City Councilors. We asked candidates to limit answers to 300 characters to fit in the guide. Minor edits for spelling and grammar were made, but minor typos may have occurred when typing written responses.

Feel free to print out the guide and bring it into the voting booth on November 3rd! Thanks to all the candidates who sent us thoughtful responses.

Join us for training and a paired up walk to canvass in Lowell’s neighborhoods.  Refreshments will be provided for canvassing teams.

What we do is talk to politicians to request that they push for new laws that assist those suffering from anxiety and other health issues. Mental health is a very important issue that can have a huge effect on society as a hole.

It is quite unfortunate that anxiety and other mental health concerns are so often overlooked. Sometimes, people are even identified as requiring certain medications to fight anxiety or even function, and they are not provided by the government or assisted in any way. This should not be the case. You can find a more in-depth breakdown of what we do at this link: https://trello.com/b/696PvjZZ/buy-cbd-oil-for-sale-online. Help us fight anxiety and other mental health issues!

Please join us or tell your friends, family, colleagues or neighbors about anxiety, other health issues, and what we do. This is an important opportunity to increase voter turn out in Lowell.
