Meet the Candidate: Daniel Lander, Candidate for State Senate Meet candidate for State Senate for Suffolk and Middlesex Daniel Lander.

Primaries in some states have already begun. Time to start meeting some candidates in our contested races!

Come meet Democrat Daniel Lander, challenger for State Senate.

Bring your questions, meet some neighbor, and grab a beer to talk politics after at The Last Drop, if that's your vibe.

In communities like Allston, rogue, masked agents are terrorizing our immigrant neighborsβ€”glorified bullies masquerading as public servants.

They're abducting workers, violating civil rights, & ripping families apart.

We must protect our communities and reject this cruelty at every turn.

Hello, neighbors.

Will I follow through on my constant threats to bring fresh baked goods to our monthly meeting on Tuesday, or once again be distracted by a shiny object?
