Subject: Re: Freedom of Information Act Request
Dear Christine,
Re: Freedom of Information Act Request
My name is Lin Zhang. I am a
graduate student from a research team at Boston University working on gender
issues in city government. Our project aims to measure the impact of female
representation on public policy, as well as understanding the channels through
which such an impact may occur.
This
is a Freedom of Information Act request for the following information about
municipal elections in Methuen Town City, MA:
-
The date of each city council, city manager, or mayoral election that has
occurred in the city since 2008.
-
The name and gender of each individual who ran for office in each election and
the vote totals they received.
-
The name of each individual elected.
-
In the case of city councils, the number of male and female councilors before
and after the election.
Thank you for your help!
Please email me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Lin
Ms. Zhang -
Please find the attached spreadsheet which shows the candidates for office in 2009, 2011, 2013, & 2015; their gender; and a final tab that indicates the gender of the winners for Mayor and City Council in each of the years requested.
Thank you,
Phil DeCologero
Chief of Staff
Office of Mayor Stephen N. Zanni
