The Norfolk & Suffolk district deserves a Senator who will show up and fight for them.
That is why I am running.

Patrick Roath is challenging Stephen Lynch in the September Democratic primary for the 8th CD in MA. Roath is a voting rights attorney with a history of deep progressive activism in the Commonwealth. He is up with a new ad:

Where is The 2025 Massachusetts Democratic Party Platform? You may be surprised to learn that the Platform, as passed by the September Democratic Party Convention, is not published on the Party's website. The version of the 2025 Platform published on the Party website lacks two of the passed amendments: Empowering Youth and Science and Research. Furthermore, the published version of the Platform lacks coherent formatting. For instance, the Table of Contents on page 1 is presented as a paragraph rather than an organized list Additionally, the Party Platform website misleadingly says, "At the Platform Convention in Springfield, on September 13th, a group of delegates, committed to the 2021 platform, offered a number of amendments and voted to retain much of the 2021 platform." This framing suggests that a small group of delegates managed to approve the 2021 platform, whereas the convention voted overwhelmingly to support the 2021 platform. If you wish, watch the official video of the convention. (The Platform is introduced at 3:43.) The needed website changes have been brought to the attention of Chair Steve Kerrigan on numerous occasions. Each time, he promised to correct the problems, but no corrections have been made. What has emerged is a rumor concerning the origin of the draft 2025 Platform. The idea is that Governor Healey would like to run for national office. Her campaign considered the 2021 Platform had too explicit in its support for single payer, abortion, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and economic benefits for people living from payroll check to payroll check. Therefore, they wrote and brought to the Platform Committee the tepid 2025 version and insisted on its adoption. This draft was rejected at the Convention. Regardless of the story behind the 2025 draft, all Democrats and Democratic Ward and Town Committees should write to Chairman (contact@massdems.org) and demand that the Party's website present the endorsed, real 2025 Platform.

🔎 Looking for the Mass Dems platform ... Asking for a friend
To residents of the MA-08 CD who are sickened by this killing and despairing of change (and weak Dem leadership)-Patrick Roath is running hard against incumbent S. Lynch in the Sept. primary. Roath's been everywhere in the district. Great candidate and fun campaign. Join us! #massdems #mapoli

Won't vote for #Moulton ("I have two little girls, I don't want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I'm supposed to be afraid to say that") #massdems I will take an older but solid progressive with seniority, thanks. #Markey
Seth Moulton would make a good senator. Joe Kennedy would have made a good senator. Ed Markey already is a good senator. #Markey #Moulton #massdems
During Trump’s presidency, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. Only the high income earners’ wages have outpaced inflation during 2025 (via WSJ). #massdems #progressivemass #Indivisible #Moveon #DNC #GOP

Mass Dems convention floor in Springfield, Mass
What did YOU think of the @massdems.bsky.social convention today? I saw some passionate democracy in action and fiery speeches! #MaPoli #MassDems #delegate
There’s a great delegation from Hingham representing our community at the Mass Democratic @massdems.bsky.social Party Convention! #voteblue #massdems
I wrote about the Draft MA Dems’ 2025 platform. Some commitments shine with clear links to policies. But for systematically marginalized communities, commitments are treated as aspirational instead of clear & actionable.

I’d love this sign even without the ironic quotation marks, maybe not as much tho
Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to work I go.
Another day, another opportunity to hold a sign and wave at cars. 🚙 🚗
Another chance to break through the bubble of gaslighting that everything is normal.
