A few words about the slate

Endorsed Democrats

For Bloomfield Town Council

The slate offers diverse experience and expertise and will use those skills to make our town a better place for all to thrive. All candidates are committed to a Bloomfield where all can succeed and flourish and none are left behind.

Additionally, the slate recognizes the importance of a high-quality school system to attract new residents. Their goal is to fund a just, vibrant school system, reinvigorate public education throughout Bloomfield and ensure that every child – regardless of the household they live in – can go to a school that is safe, supportive, well-funded, and ready to meet their needs.

Democratic Nominating Committee Chair Byron Lester noted that he’s excited by the ticket and is confident that this team can and will move Bloomfield forward and exhibit the leadership needed on the Town Council.

I’m proud of my service on council for the last 2 years, and I’m excited that the Democratic Party has recognized the need for a course correction in leadership for this town. We’re better together.”
