Após dois mandatos na Câmara Municipal, a vereadora Samantha Perlman está concorrendo para ser nossa próxima prefeita!

Ela está empenhada em criar uma Marlborough próspera, onde priorizamos a acessibilidade de nossa cidade, melhoramos os serviços da cidade, garantimos que nossas vozes sejam ouvidas e criamos um governo inclusivo e transparente.

👋 Good morning and happy Primary Election Day here in Massachusetts! 🗳️

Wanted to make sure you remember to go vote! My friend @maradolan4gc is running to be our next Governor’s Councillor. She will bring an invaluable perspective to the body as a public defender and will ensure justice and transparency are at the forefront. I am so thrilled to see her running and she is all over the district!

The Governor’s Council is in charge of confirming or rejecting the governor’s judicial nominees and approving her pardons and commutations. Many people do not know this body but it is incredibly important.

I was honored when Mara marched with us for the Labor Day Parade last year. The photo above is a little throwback in honor of both Labor Day yesterday and to make sure you remember to go VOTE!

🗳️ Polls open 7 AM until 8 PM.

✨The one where she graduates law school!! 🎓

⚖️Proud to share that I graduated part two of my dual degree with my J.D. from Boston College Law School (@bclawonline)!

Many would say that my path during law school was nontraditional as I navigated a myriad of responsibilities. Serving in elected office, running for office twice while in school and managing my dual degree were not easy. However, what kept me grounded was my commitment to public service and knowing that all the hard work would be worth it. A big thank you to my mentors, friends and family for believing in me. I hope everyone who reads this knows that you are enough and to keep reaching for your dreams!

Officially Samantha Perlman, J.D., M.A. 🎉👏

#BCLaw #DualDegree #JurisDoctor

Graduated with my master’s degree!! 🎓🎉👏

On Sunday, I graduated the first part of my dual degree program, receiving my master’s in Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning (@tufts_uep) from @tuftsuniversity! #urbanplanner

Grateful to everyone who has supported my graduate education throughout my public service career. 💛

In April, I was honored to be this year’s recipient of the Rob Hollister Award for Graduate Student Citizenship from @tuftsuniversity Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering. This award recognizes graduate students who have contributed their time and effort to the community outside of Tufts.

I am touched to receive this recognition acknowledging my public service contributions as a community advocate and elected official during my time as a Tufts graduate student. I appreciate my advisor Professor Jon Witten for nominating me and am proud to be representing @tufts_uep. I cannot wait for graduation this weekend! 🎓🎉

Thank you to the Journal of Health and Biomedical Law at Suffolk University Law School for hosting me as a speaker for your Health Law and Democracy Symposium last month! I appreciated being part of the panel on Local, State and Federal Perspectives. I was joined by Congressman Auchincloss and Professor Janice Griffith.

Civic participation impacts every aspect of our communities and we need more young voices at the table!

💕Fulfilling to see so many familiar faces in support of our Marlborough Public Library Foundation at last night’s donor appreciation event. I am proud to be contributing monthly for our new library! 📚

A big thank you to all who came up to chat and shared their appreciation for my contributions to our community! ✨

The Council honored my four amazing years serving as your City Councilor At-Large during my final City Council meeting this past Monday. ❤️✨

Grateful does not even begin to cover it! Swipe to see my public service plaque and hear a few words I shared at the meeting.

✨Join me for my final City Council meeting tonight at 8 PM in the City Council Chamber!! It would mean so much to have you in attendance as we close out our incredible time in public service together. As many of you know, I am the youngest woman elected citywide to the council, served through the pandemic and we forever changed our local government for the better.

P.S. I’ll post a longer gratitude before the end of the year but hope to see your smiling face tonight at our meeting!

Some gems from our incredibly memorable Hanukkah Party 🕎 and Council Appreciation event! It was so special to have everyone at Temple Emanuel, share the story and traditions of Hanukkah and close out my four years together on the Council. We also collected over 75 coats to donate to families in need. You all fill my heart with joy and gratitude. ❤️

Tomorrow is my last full City Council meeting and I hope you can join me at 8 PM! #SamforMarlboro

What a lovely evening for the 4th annual downtown Marlborough menorah lighting in celebration of the 5th night of Hanukkah! Thank you to @rabbiyisroel and @chabadsudbury for bringing light into the darkness. Make sure to check out the menorah outside the Walker Building! 🕎

🎉 It’s party time! Save the date for our Hanukkah Party on December 13th from 6-8 PM.

This will be an opportunity to reflect on the last four years of my service on the City Council, appreciate all of you for your support and encouragement, and of course, celebrate Hanukkah! 🕎

🍑What a blast representing Marlborough and Massachusetts at the @leagueofcities summit the last few days in Atlanta, GA! It was wonderful to connect with city officials from all over the country to share best practices and discuss innovative solutions to common challenges. It was a great reminder of how cities must learn and listen to one another and engage in regional, state and national partnerships. 👏 #mapoli #citysummit2023

Swipe to the end for a great quote!

Honored to receive the Distinguished Elected Alumni Award from @commonwealthseminar in honor of their 20th Anniversary Celebration. The mission of the Seminar is ‘opening up the doors of government to everyone’ and I am a proud alumna of the 2018 class.

Thank you for this honor and recognition! Your support and investment in people like me is diversifying the face of leadership in Massachusetts every single day.

Happy Veterans Day, Marlborough! Great to walk in this morning’s Veterans Day Parade. 🇺🇸

Wonderful job @marlborobands on the music!

💛A Note of Gratitude.

Thank you, Marlborough, for your relentless support and investment in me. It was such a close race and unfortunately, we came up short. But let me be clear; an election is -only- a moment in time. It does not capture the grassroots movement we initiated, not just in this campaign, but over the last four years, during which it was my supreme honor to serve the entire city as your Councilor At-Large.

🗳️ Our supporters are FABULOUS! We are covering every polling place and GETTING OUT THE VOTE!! #SamforMayor #RunSamRun

Make a plan to vote today until 8 PM!!

🎉Make sure to join us 8 PM onward at Welly’s TONIGHT on Main Street in Marlborough for our “Party After the Polls” to appreciate our volunteers and await results. Hope to see you tonight!

Make sure to vote and wear your “I Voted” sticker to the party! #SamforMayor

Samantha also has the advantage of having been a councilor-at-large during her entire city council tenure, giving her the experience and city wide perspective so necessary to begin working on behalf of all residents on day one.”

Arthur has been an avid supporter of Sam for Mayor since day one! He knows Sam cares about our seniors and our community because she has already demonstrated that time and again as a citywide Councilor. See why Arthur supports Sam:

“I hope you will support Samantha Perlman for our next Mayor of Marlborough. She is an exceptional candidate and presents our residents with an opportunity that we should not pass by. Samantha has the experience, energy, and intellect to lead. As Councilor At-Large she always answered my phone calls, and listened carefully about what I had to say. Her educational background and work experience is amazing. Soon she will have a law degree from Boston College and will graduate from Tufts University with a major in Urban Planning and Policy. Her work experience includes service in a non-profit where she helped pass a law to promote Civics Education in our Public Schools. Samantha has been endorsed by the Environmental League of Massachusetts and has formed partnerships with state and federal legislators. This candidate cares about our seniors, will listen carefully to their needs, and will make homes and the city affordable. With her unique skills and experience in government policy, finance, and city planning, Marlborough will be a flourishing city. She has been visiting every ward in our city, often going house to house campaigning and keeping closely in touch with business leaders and our young people.

Bob knows a changemaker when he sees one, as he is one himself! Read how Bob sees Samantha as an integral part of Marlborough’s future:

“Last year, I moved from Newton to senior housing in Marlborough. Before I left, four prominent local officials urged me to introduce myself to a young Marlborough City Councilor named Samantha Perlman. They had come to know Samantha through joint participation in leadership programs sponsored by various statewide organizations. All had high praise for Sam’s professional and organizational skills, personal credibility, infectious optimism, and capacity to lead positively, clearly, and effectively. I joined Sam’s mayoral campaign this past summer. I can attest that everything the four Newton officials told me about Sam is true. She will be an outstanding mayor. There is another timely feature to Sam’s candidacy that is particularly urgent. I’ve been a volunteer in scores of political campaigns going back to Adlai Stevenson’s 1956 election run. I have never seen the political dialogue as consumed by as much hate and division as it is now. Sam's positive vision for Marlborough and the optimistic, down-to-earth ways she presents carefully researched and fact-based proposals to voters are a perfect antidote to all the poison that nefarious opponents of democracy are releasing into American society. I have faith that this is what a clear majority of voters in Marlborough and beyond really want.”

—Bob, Ward 1 Resident
