Tom Roache for State Representative Norfolk 9th

June 26, 2008 By medfieldbluebob 2 Comments

Tom has created and mobilized a youth volunteer corps that is learning the art of grassroots organizing and campaigning. Tom is young and enthusiastic.

Tom’s background in community organizing and belief in citizen politics recommends him to progressives. He and his volunteers are walking precincts, holding signs, organizing house parties, and all of the other grassroots essentials that we Democrats have relearned in recent years.

Tom is demonstrating his independence by running as an Independent, not a bad idea in a district with 60% unenrolled. No Democratic candidate stepped up, and Tom is the only hope to take this seat.

I urge BMG’ers to give Tom a look and support him.

    To date the Roache campaign has seemed incredibly well organized, I am very impressed.

    I too was impressed by Tom.  This is a progressive candidate that I know Dems here in the district (9th Norfolk)  can get behind.  Running as an independent is not easy so he really needs us to support him.  If you are not sure about this guy  just check out http://www.jointom.net to see what he is all about.

I hope every voter in Suffolk Co reads and rereads this comment until they understand the implications of having a DA Arroyo so inexperienced that he is not qualified to sit as SECOND chair on a Suffolk Co murder trial as prosecutor or public defender. #BosPoli #MaPoli #NoArroyos

Jessamyn Jones @jessamynejones

@orennimni This comment is woefully ignorant & verifiably false. Hayden spent 2x as many years as a defense attorney than Arroyo. Arroyo has so little experience that he does not meet the reqs to lead a jury trial, or even sit 2nd chair on a murder trial, as a public defender or ADA.

Substantive question for @RicardoNArroyo that would help voters differentiate his #SuffolkDA candidacy from DA Hayden’s. Will Ricardo answer? Go after illegal guns or nah, Ricardo? #BosPoli & #MaPoli

Jessamyn Jones @jessamynejones

This account also loves to criticize @dakevinhayden for enforcing gun laws in communities most grievously impacted by gun violence. Does @ricardonarroyo agree w/ @CourtWatchMA that DA should deemphasize illegal gun possession? Will it be on his expanded #DNPlist? #bospoli #mapoli https://twitter.com/CourtWatchMA/status/1559220406371995648

Voting to tank the #NoCostCalls bill, and now endorsing DA Hayden over @RicardoNArroyo? I think its time for her to go. #mapoli

Happy to endorse @DAKevinHayden for DA! https://twitter.com/dakevinhayden/status/1559176032732811267
