If I don't get back to emails immediately due to flaky Wifi, swimming, getting desperately needed semblance of epidermal pigmentation, or practicing Spanish in Playa del Carmen, that is why. Much love. ☀️

I would like to end with an enormous thank you to our volunteers—people who gave their limited time to help bring fresh ideas and a compassionate, evidence-based approach to this city. Please know this: **we could not have done this without you.**

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

That is why we, as a city, *must* think bigger. We must leverage these gifts. We must lead in new, transformative ideas. And, most of all, we must thoughtfully serve our people and lead in the vital task of envisioning and building better government.

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

A substantial portion of our voters demonstrates an explicit openness to new ideas and a culture that pushes people to think before they vote.

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

I do not think an approach like this could have fared nearly so well in another city. Cambridge is a place with strong progressive values, to be sure—but also a pragmatic, discerning streak.

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

Turns out, many people here don't blindly vote based on the number of times they see a name in the street or in ads. They actually read up on people. This honestly gives me so much respect for Cambridge voters.

120

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

If elections were decided purely on funds, ad space, or sheer organizational scale, we should have been soundly obliterated. But that is not what happened at all.

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

For, despite our challenges—championing the interests of struggling renters without taking developer money is *not* a political cash cow—our campaign's foundational strength was putting forward a set of strong, informed, and substantive policies that would genuinely benefit the city.

120

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

What we accomplished was nothing less than incredible. With a 3-person team and a tiny shoestring budget of a little over $10k—one of the very lowest in the race—we handedly outpaced many larger and more deep-pocketed political organizations.

120

Dana Bullister @danabullister.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

We are incredibly proud to have helped achieve a pro-housing, pro-safe streets Council, infuse our local conversations with powerful ideas like land value tax, dynamic metering, and flipped lobbying, and draw many new voters to being involved in important issues.

Powerful letter to reflect on before you go to vote. Many candidates are running to roll back the progress Cambridge has made - they are explicitly pro-exclusionary zoning. A vote for ABC's pro-housing slate will help Cambridge go forward, not back. www.cambridgeday.com/2025/11/03/c...

I’m proud that our city has faced the resulting housing crisis realistically, and with an eye to equity and sustainability. Cambridge started with the 100% Affordable Housing Overlay, which has opened new opportunities for lower-cost housing, with over 800 homes in the pipeline.

This year, Cambridge passed a Multi-family Zoning Ordinance – a landmark law that received national attention as it created possibilities for multi-family housing citywide. Among the results of the lowered barriers in this law:

a 4-unit lot in mid-Cambridge will become home for 30 households;
a one-story retail building with three stores near Porter, fixed at that size and use since 1894, can now become three stores plus 71 homes;
a deteriorating historic structure near Harvard Sq. is on track to be restored and maintained because it can share its large lot with housing and a small hotel.

Cambridge accomplished all this with planning, deliberation and resident involvement, although not everyone’s policy preferences could be adopted. I expect there will be much more to come as we work our way out of the long-term housing shortage.

This is what some Council candidates want to repeal. We’ve seen what happens when conservatives try to take their country back. Some of our local conservatives have announced their intention to take our city back – to the exclusionary policies from the last century.

To keep Cambridge on an equitable and inclusionary path, I’m voting for the slate endorsed by A Better Cambridge: Burhan Azeem, Dana Bullister, Mark McGovern, Ned Melanson, Sumbul Siddiqui, Denise Simmons, Jivan Sobrinho-Wheeler, and Ayesha Wilson. For Cambridge’s sake, I hope you will, too.

A core takeaway from my door knocking (and from these guides) is my deepened respect for the voter. I've found people here do not like slogans or vagueness. They are ready to engage in substantive policy discussion and interested by thoughtful and pragmatic ideas. They *want* to read and think.
