***** Candy Mero-Carlson Gave Her All To District 2 Families Neighbors & Business Owners *****
In some form one way or the other Mero-Carlson will be back and WP101 will be right here waiting to support this tremendous public servant again.
Thank you for your service to D2 in particular and our city as a whole!

For the last ten years, I have had the privilege of waking up every day and fighting for the people and neighborhoods of District 2. Serving this community has been an extraordinary chapter in my life, one defined by hard work, partnership, and a deep belief in Worcester’s potential.
Last night’s outcome brings this chapter to a close. While I am disappointed, I am overwhelmingly grateful. Grateful for the neighbors who welcomed me into their homes, the small business owners who shared their stories, and the families who trusted me to be their voice at City Hall.
I want to express my deepest appreciation to the incredible volunteers and friends who stood with me throughout this campaign. You poured your hearts into every call, conversation, and moment. I will never forget your friendship and dedication.
To my neighbors, thank you for giving me the honor of serving you for a decade. Together, we invested in parks and playgrounds, strengthened public safety, supported local businesses, and worked to make District 2 a place every family can be proud to call home. Those accomplishments belong to all of us.
Though my time on the City Council will come to an end, my love for Worcester and its people will not fade. I will continue to show up, lend a hand, and advocate for the neighborhoods that have given me so much.
Thank you for the privilege of serving. It has truly been an honor of a lifetime.
