The Massachusetts Independent Party is pleased to announce that former candidate for Governor’s Council in District 3, Tom Sheff, has been hired to be their first PR officer.
“We are so glad to have Tom aboard with us,” said John Valianti, chairman of the newly formed independent party.  “We watched Tom run for office and was impressed with his transparency and his ability to communicate his positions with news sources and supporters,” Valianti continued.
“I am really thrilled to be part of the Massachusetts Independent Party.  I feel like I found a political home where I’m accepted and I really want to help out,” says Sheff.
The newly formed Massachusetts Independent Party believes that the more people who participate in our democratic form of government, the stronger we make our state.  More people participate in elections when they are given more choices, more candidates, more ideas, more honest opinions and more voices.  For more information see www.massindependentparty.com

      @Tom: If you’re the PR Officer shouldn’t they be contacting you if they are curious about the party?

    Thanks Mike and Josh.
    Greg, I have an incredibly busy week this week and we thought it might be better for us to use the chairman’s number, so people can talk to someone right away. We’re trying to be as responsive as possible. That PR piece will be hitting every wickedlocal/Patch in the near future.

    If there is anyone who wants to get involved in politics. but is hitting the “old boys network” give us a try.

    Congratulations Tom.
    As your first order of business you might want to update the website. Add your contact info and take down Tim Cahill’s name. He’s no longer running for Governor.
