State Rep Michael Day has a Challenger: Elizabeth HARRAH
An Independent candidate with a fresh perspective

I am Elizabeth Harrah, the Independent candidate for State
Representative to serve Winchester and Stoneham. I am running against
incumbent State Representative Michael Day.
Numerous news outlets have incorrectly reported that Michael Day is
running unopposed in the general election this November based off of
primary election results. However, primary elections are held for each
party to designate their candidates. As an Unenrolled (aka Independent)
candidate, I do not have the benefit of being listed on the primary
ballot, just the general election ballot. Unfortunately, this causes
confusion for many voters. Surprisingly, Independents make up the
majority of Winchester and Stoneham residents. In fact, 56% of
registered voters in these two towns are designated as being unenrolled
with either party, meaning we (Independents) actually get to decide who
will be our representative.
As an Independent candidate, I have quickly learned the challenges of
not being affiliated with a particular party or funded by special
interest groups. However, I am determined to overcome those obstacles
because of what is at stake this election. We desperately need change!

I believe I can offer a fresh and unique perspective to the State
Legislature while remaining committed to representing the voters in my
district. As a mom to two young boys, a mentor to young adults, and a
breastfeeding counselor to moms in our communities, I understand the
practical, everyday challenges facing our families and towns. My 15
years of health care experience, including women’s health, will allow me
to follow the data and science in order to promote sound policies that
ensure public safety and address health concerns while increasing
economic growth.
It is time for change. Winchester and Stoneham deserve a State
Representative who will lead with integrity and stay focused on making
decisions in the voters best interest. I am committed to standing up for
the taxpayers of the communities I serve.
