Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope this finds you well and enjoying this fall weekend.  This email is not a Town Council Update, though I hope to pull together an Update soon after the November 7 Town election.  It is a final appeal to support my bid for re-election as your Councilor-at-Large. 

First, a very big THANK YOU to those who have already contributed to building a winning campaign.  Your donations and your volunteer time is greatly appreciated. I do not exaggerate when I say that without you there would be no re-election campaign.

If you have not contributed to the campaign, please take a moment to read below. With little over a week before Election Day, Tuesday, November 7, it is time to put the pieces in place needed to win another term on the Town Council.  Please respond to this email and tell me how you can help.   

 
1) Most importantly, I ask you to cast one of your four votes for Councilor-at-Large for me!  My name appears 5th on the ballot.

2) Make a donation!  You can write a check to Committee to Re-Elect Councilor Palomba and mail it to 14 Bates Road #2, Watertown, 02472 or donate on-line 

3) How about putting a sign in your yard?   It is not too late.  A yard sign send a message to your neighbors that you are supporting me.  Provide your address 
    and we will get a sign up ASAP.

4) Hold my campaign sign at a polling location on Tuesday, November 7!    I hope to have volunteers from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at 
     key polling locations.  Please respond with your availability for a one, two or three hour shift in the AM, PM or both.

5) Make Get Out the Vote reminder calls!  These are easy calls to good voters.  Can you respond with your availability for:

   Saturday, November 4 from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM @ 14 Bates Road, #2

   Sunday, November 5 from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM @ 14 Bates Road, #2

    Monday, November 6 from your home anytime from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM

6) Take a walk in a neighborhood of Watertown and "drop" literature at the doors of good voters. My printer provided a extra 500 post cards.  Take 50 or so 
     along with a list and simply leave a card at each door.  This can be done anytime you have time.

7) Contact 3-5 of your friends, neighbors or co-workers to tell them why you are supporting me and remind them to vote on Tuesday, November 7. 
    There are many voters in Town who vote in state and national elections, but not in local elections.

I look forward to hearing from you soon, and "thank you" in advance, for whatever you can do to help my campaign. 
Tony
