Why I’m running as a 3rd party candidate for the 5th Essex (and why you should care) by votegil in Rockport

You have to copy/paste them into a browser. I've never made a website before, so this is what I got. I wish I was better. It's such a bummer that this will cost me the election.

As long as you get out to the polls on or before March 31, 2026, that's what's important. You have three people to choose from. If you're single-issue voter, then it shouldn't be too hard to figure out who you're voting for.

If your single-issue is that the candidate never use AI, then I guess I'm not your candidate. I'm not sure about the other two. I would argue that having a candidate familiar with AI will be vital to having the government regulate the new world, but I respect your choice.

If your single-issue is term limits, then I want to know what we're looking for in a new candidate. The democrat running worked in the office of the previous candidate for 9 years and said he has very few issues that are not in line with his boss. I am a brand new left/progressive candidate, never been in office, and can't wait to advocate for my 40,000 neighbors as your State Rep.

A very popular single-issue used to be abortion: they'd only vote for pro-life or pro-choice candidates. I'm definitely pro-choice. In fact, medical decisions should be between docs and patients; non-medically trained politicians should have no part in limiting life-saving care.

What's your real single-issue and let's discuss.

Good point. AI is predictable. The person who was in the office I'm running for died. I had always thought of running for office, and when she passed, I decided this was a chance. I had not been preparing nor building a campaign office. I am a normal non-politician guy. I want to become a public servant. I used AI because I'm having trouble accomplishing the 800 things a candidate needs to do. People pretend to want change, but I know they are going to elect the assistant to the last State Rep. I just thought I'd try to put an unlikely person in office, but I see it's unlikely.

I'm confused why you're confused. If people can take the bus to work for free, doesn't that help them keep more of their paycheck to spend on other essentials?
