Supporting Madigan

I have had the great privilege to work and personally get to know Michele Madigan, Saratoga Springs Commissioner of Finance.

Michele is an incredible person, who has in my opinion worked only to better our city and improve the lives for all those in our community. As a young person I value a candidate who not just speaks on the issues but can actually produce results and that person full stop is Michele Madigan.

I attended Saratoga Springs City High School and during my time there I founded the first “young democrats club” in Saratoga County and worked to elect democrats and support progressive causes. I am proud to be a democrat as is Michele Madigan, and although she may not be on the democratic line come November, I encourage all young democrats and frankly all people to come out and vote for Michele Madigan on the Working Family’s Party and Independence Lines.

Over her tenure she has worked to install a solar park providing forty percent of city energy, has a plan to convert all city vehicles to electric power, to advance the city’s recycling system and provide more e-car charging stations throughout the city. Beyond that Commissioner Madigan has an incredible record of stable property tax rates, surpluses, and the refinancing of debt to save the city millions. I understand that at times it’s hard to deviate from your party line, but the position of Commissioner of Finance is important and the person we elect will either have the necessary experience and dedication to better our city (Michele Madigan) or potentially throw our city off course.

I hope that Commissioner Madigan’s message of a “One Saratoga” to unite our city and drive positive action prevails as in our nation there is already far too much division. So, come November 6th, 2019 democrats, republicans, independents, please vote for Michele Madigan as she will always put city above party, and people before politics.
