The Melrose Messenger

Keeping Melrosians Informed Since 2024

The Night Before Election Day

‘Twas the night before Election Day

And all through Melrose

Facebook users were in comments

Haranguing their foes

But instead of writing out

Another social media screed

We’ve linked some articles and videos -

take a watch or a read!


Start with our Election page

where you can find

profiles of candidates

and information about the override.


We interviewed Mayor Jen -

go see what that’s about -

and we made a cool budget tool

you can try out.


Then how about a Globe article

about us and Stoneham?

Or a piece about the larger context

we find ourselves in?


Finn has a point of view

that he doesn’t hide,

but we think his latest columns

are good reading for folks on either side.


To learn more about candidates,

watch this forum for free,

then hear the candidates speak

here on MMTV.


Some former mayors shared

their thoughts on the override -

hear from Lyons, Infurna

Dolan, and Brodeur - it's all bona fide.


Now let’s stop this rhyming

It’s getting so awful

See you at the polls tomorrow

to do your civic duty, good and lawful.

Come to the middle school

Between 7(am) and 8(pm)

Then check back here for the results,

We’ll try not to make you wait!
