WINCHESTER, MA—State Representative Michael Day, who represents Winchester, announced Friday that he has filed to run for re-election to the House of Representatives.

Day stated that he has recently filed his intent to seek re-election as the State Representative for Stoneham and Winchester, and will formally launch his campaign on May 24. Day told Patch that his main goals are to increase support from the state for both Stoneham and Winchester, particularly in areas of transportation.

Day also stated that he hopes to help continue the momentum the state has built when it comes to addressing the issues of substance abuse.

"We've paid a lot of attention to it, but we have a long way to go," Day told Patch."

Day was first elected to the seat in 2014, and this will be his first campaign for re-election. He regarded the preservation of the Stoneham Zoo, increasing chapter 70 and local aid funding and progress made towards the substance abuse issues facing the area as some of the high-points in his first term in the seat.

Day will formally launch his re-election campaign with friends and supporters at a public reception on May 24 at Lucia's Restaurant in Winchester.
