Joe Laurin for Concord Select Board
Election Updates (4/10/2024)
We’ll- the numbers are in and 3 of the 4 candidates (Cameron, Tracey and Andrew) I‘ve been recommending for Select Board and School Committee have won and are now in position to make the changes we’ve been talking about: better transparency, data-based decisions, working to an overarching plan, spending within our means.
Even though I’m not going to be one of those folks (this time?) I’m excited about this new direction for Concord. And, I will be there in support of these newly elected leaders (I will not “go quietly into the night…”).
Congratulations to Cam, Tracey and Andrew! Now the hard work begins, but with a team in place that is up to the task.
Thank you to everyone who supported my campaign- amazing friends and neighbors, and newly minted friends. We woudn’t have come even this close without all your help.
Finally, congratulations to Wendy Rovelli for her win, and to Henry Dane for his strong run.
All My Best,
Joe
