Dear leaders of the SLC,
The September 19 preliminary election is just a few weeks away. Mayoral Candidate Payton Corbett needs a strong showing on Sept. 19 to be taken seriously by residents and the news media going forward into the Nov. 7 election.
Below is a schedule of activities. Although other groups (Greater Boston Labor Council, IBEW Local 2222, and Our Revolution Somerville) have also endorsed Payton, a strong turnout from SLC members is critical to building momentum for the campaign.
Visit Payton's website here: http://www.paytoncorbett.com/ and his "like" his Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/PaytonforSomerville/
Please don't hesitate to email or call me with any questions or concerns.
In Solidarity,
Rand Wilson
