COMMUNITY MEMBERS
Bob, Ward 1 Resident and Veteran
“Last year, I moved from Newton to senior housing in Marlborough. Before I left, four prominent local officials urged me to introduce myself to a young Marlborough City Councilor named Samantha Perlman. They had come to know Samantha through joint participation in leadership programs sponsored by various statewide organizations. All had high praise for Sam’s professional and organizational skills, personal credibility, infectious optimism, and capacity to lead positively, clearly, and effectively. I joined Sam’s mayoral campaign this past summer. I can attest that everything the four Newton officials told me about Sam is true. She will be an outstanding mayor. There is another timely feature to Sam’s candidacy that is particularly urgent. I’ve been a volunteer in scores of political campaigns going back to Adlai Stevenson’s 1956 election run. I have never seen the political dialogue as consumed by as much hate and division as it is now. Sam's positive vision for Marlborough and the optimistic, down-to-earth ways she presents carefully researched and fact-based proposals to voters are a perfect antidote to all the poison that nefarious opponents of democracy are releasing into American society. I have faith that this is what a clear majority of voters in Marlborough and beyond really want.”
Steve and Jane, Ward 6 Residents
"Integrity - Trust - Willingness to work with others for Marlborough’s best interest"
Olivia, Ward 5 Resident, College Student, and (OG!) Youth for Sam member
"Sam has always been an outspoken advocate for Marlborough residents. Sam cares about what constituents have to say, and her enthusiasm and willingness to get things done is genuine. She has been a mentor of mine since I was a student at Marlborough High School, and as a younger resident I am excited to see things change and adapt to our growing diverse community with Sam as Mayor of Marlborough!"
Donna, Marlborough Council on Aging Boardmember and Ward 6 Resident
"I believe in Samantha. I trust her. She will follow through, be transparent and honest, just as she has been on the City Council for 4 years. Marlborough needs young energetic people leading us into the future. Sam has the education, experience, and ability to work collaboratively that we need in a mayor."
Solange & Honorico, Ward 1 Residents
"We are supporting Samantha because we believe on her. She's rightly qualified and we know she will work hard for the rights of the hard-working residents of Marlborough. She's also very intelligent, personable and has a big heart!!!"
Rob, Ward 4 Resident, Rhode Island Transplant, and Marlborough Enthusiast
"Sam's dedication to Marlborough was evident from the moment I met her canvassing door-to-door in September 2021, in a mask, even though she was virtually guaranteed re-election. Across her two terms as At-Large Councilor, Sam has proven to be diligent and organized, and passionate about serving all of the citizens of Marlborough. It's an exciting time to be living in Marlborough, and Sam's leadership is part of that excitement for me. I look forward to her being Marlborough's next mayor!"
Ashley, Ward 2 Resident and Parent, MetroWest Business Professional, Former Municipal Employee for the Town of Ashland
"The City of Marlborough needs a vibrant new leader to bring our community into a new era in order to compete with our MetroWest neighbors. Samantha has the energy, enthusiasm, support, and more importantly, the education and resources necessary to combat our city's obstacles. She's proven herself as a thoughtful community leader passionate about listening to residents, and advocating for us. I love that she's an amazing role model for my children, and a graduate of our school system. I'm confident she has the education and skillset necessary to lead Marlborough. In my opinion, she's the only candidate qualified to do so. "
Zachary, Ward 6 Resident
"Sam has the intellect, guts, vision, and confidence to lead Marlborough through the 2020s and beyond. She cares about the residents as people, and is a champion of progress. She's also the only candidate actively discussing Marlborough's role in preventing further climate change."
Sebastian, Ward 1 Resident, Financial Advisor & Tax Analyst
"Smart young lady who has a vision for making Marlborough a modern city with a vibrant downtown and inclusive environment for all. "
Ian, Marlborough Resident, Ward 6 Resident, Undergraduate Student
"I'm voting for Sam because, as a life-long Marlborough resident, I want what's best for our City. Especially now, we need a new leader who will make real change in our community, through policies that benefit all of us. I'm confident that Sam has the knowledge, experience, and passion to bring about this change."
Jennifer, Ward 6 Resident, Scientist, Mom of Twin Girls
"My family supports Samantha Pearlman for Mayor because she cares deeply for every member of our community. She demonstrates her value and respect for others through her responsiveness and call to action. We contacted Samantha during the pandemic about opening our public parks for use and she diligently worked to resolve the issues keeping them closed. Pearlman also values education and will do everything she can to secure more resources for our district. This is of particular interest to our family with 2 school age children."
Helen, Ward 5 Resident, engaged citizen and voter.
"Since even before running office for the city of Marlborough, Samantha has always put our community first and sought out ways to better Marlborough for all. I first met her as we worked together as mentors for MPS students through Big Brother Big Sister. I am proud to vote for someone I know to be a champion for all people in the community - no matter age, gender, ethnicity or any other defining characteristics. Sam recognizes the power of our diverse community and has spent her time on the council embracing and empowering that. She has proven herself to be an accessible and responsive leader, quickly establishing herself as the councilor you turn to if you want to get something done. She is passionate about our community, and I believe her comprehensive agenda and relentless spirit is what our city needs to lead us through this next phase."
Jamie (Marlborough Makers Founder), Robert (Candidate for Ward 3) & Dahlia
"Sam understands the arts as an industry and how artist communities have helped bring about positive revitalization for many Massachusetts areas. We hope our local artistic community is allowed to bring new opportunities to our city. Public art will not only beautify our surroundings but create a thriving environment for our small businesses and a more welcoming space for all residents."
Marjorie, Ward 1 Resident
"Sam is a hard working visionary who has the desire and ability to transform the city ."
Rich, Ward 7 Resident
"I believe in Marlborough, and I want to see it continue to thrive. There are some things that I would like to see change such as road repair, revitalizing downtown, supporting small businesses, and making the city government more accessible and efficient. Once I met Sam Perlman and had a chance to get to know her; I was convinced that not only could she do the job, but these were among her priorities in her platform. I believe in her more than any other person Ive ever met. Her ability to multitask, political background, endless energy, education, respect and love for veterans, support for seniors, and vision for Marlborough have convinced me that she should be our next Mayor."
Kevin (retired US Air Force) & Antoinette, 29-year Ward 6 Residents
"Samantha is one of the most caring leaders we've ever met. She listens to her community and takes action to make a difference. She's not afraid of confrontation for justice but listens to all sides to get a true understanding before making an educated and appropriate decision. Samantha will be the change this city needs to bring those who have differing opinions and understanding together to form a strong united community like the foundations this Nation was formed on. Please take your right to vote seriously and move Samantha Pearlman into the Mayoral position to improve the streets and public works, keep our community safe while we move ahead as one beautiful City we all love!!"
Meaghan, Ward 2 Resident, Parent, Teach, and Community Volunteer
"I'm voting for Samantha for Mayor because I'm ready for a change in our city. People need to know that the city will work for the people who live here and how to access these services. Sam's experience in civics education and her reputation as being the most responsive city councilor make me feel confident she has the skills to do this."
Mary, College Student, Sam for Mayor Fellow, and Ward 2 Resident
"As a young resident of Marlborough, being able to see a young woman run for office is inspiring and empowering. It has made me realize the importance of getting young people into office who have big ideas and fresh perspectives for our community. Sam's commitment to getting young people involved in local politics and Marlborough was completely eye-opening, and as a result I am more connected to my community like never before. Sam is such a great mentor and friend, and I know she will be an amazing Mayor. She uplifts others wherever she goes, and she will do the same thing for the City of Marlborough if elected Mayor."
Alexander, Ward 6 Resident, Just a parent of a special needs child who attends Marlborough Public Schools.
"We’ve had personal experience of her responding to the WWII memorial beach trash incident during Covid and saw how she listened to our concerns and responded swiftly."
Tommy, Ward 4 Resident, Ward 4 Councilor candidate
"As a Ward 4 candidate for Councilor, it's important to find someone that's easy to work with, reliable and fun. Most of all a person that leads with their 💜 and chooses love."
Leo, Ward 6 Resident
"Youthful change and understanding"
Nithya, Youth For Sam Member and Ward 2 Resident
"I am supporting Councilor Samantha Perlman for Mayor because of her advocacy for youth involvement in local politics, inclusivity, civic education, and climate change awareness. Her policies align with my own beliefs for the betterment of my community. She is very accessible and she, with Youth for Sam, has given me many opportunities to voice my concerns and understand local politics and its effect on my community. Her leadership is an inspiration for young women like myself who want to make a change."
Bruce, Ward 2 Resident
"Sam knows how government works and can get things done. She's a trained professional, exactly what we need as mayor of our growing, evolving city as we face tomorrow's challenges."
Doug, Ward 7 Resident and environmental activist
"Sam represents a new era of leadership for our city, inclusive, thoughtful, competent, experienced, and forward-thinking. As someone who has worked on her City Council campaigns, and now her run for mayor, I have seen Sam reach out to all corners of our city, actually embrace the diversity that makes us a stronger community, and, as a result, bring new people into active civic engagement, especially young people. We all benefit from this kind of active leadership. Let's move forward together and realize our city's full potential."
Max, Graduate student, Sam for Mayor fellow, and Ward 2 Resident
"I'm supporting Sam for Mayor because she's a passionate leader who truly exemplifies public service. The city of Marlborough needs a champion like Sam who will fight for the common good especially as it relates to conservation and preserving the environment, the strengthening of our public education system, the promotion of civic engagement, the betterment of public services, and the improvement of our community. As a young college graduate, I am so glad to be a part of this grassroots movement in our local community to raise local political awareness and to advocate for my neighbors. I could not be prouder to support Sam in this election because she has the best interests of the community at heart and she's a genuine fighter for the people."
