Another Day, Another Candidate In Wilmington Selectmen's Race

WILMINGTON, MA -- Mark Maselli, a small business owner who has lived in Wilmington for 16 years, withdrew nomination papers to run for selectmen Monday afternoon. In addition to incumbents Greg Bendel and Kevin Caira, who are up for reelection, Rob Fasulo, Daniel Murphy and former selectman Suzanne Sullivan have said they plan to run in the April 27 town election.

"I want to help our community and have a positive impact," Maselli said. "Too many things are not happening or are going the wrong way and I believe I can help to make a positive and impactful contribution to our town."

Maselli, 51, and his wife have three children, all of whom attend Wilmington Public Schools. Maselli grew up in Philadelphia and moved to Massachusetts in 1996.

Separately, at least two candidates are running to fill the year left in the term of selectman Ed Loud, who plans to resign after the Feb. 11 board. We're One Wilmington President Jomarie O'Mahony and longtime Wilmington resident Daryn Marsh said they plan to run for that seat in the town election.
