Important issue.
Cancer Votes Massachusetts was out last week at the U.S. Senate candidate debate in Springfield, MA, the third of four scheduled debates between Sen. Scott Brown (R) and Elizabeth Warren (D).
Cancer Votes volunteers and staff spent time talking with supporters from both campaigns about why cancer needs to be a national priority, and six volunteers and staff were able to attend the sold-out debate.
And Cancer Votes volunteer Pat Spain from North Andover gave several interviews to reporters, including one with NPR!
According to Cancer Votes staffer Patricia Mallios, volunteers and staff were able to meet a lot of people and many of them kept their stickers on during the debate and were interested in hearing about Cancer Votes.

Just some musings and electronic gatherings of an ink-stained wretch turned social media junkie. As JADAL says: No trees were destroyed in the sending of this organic message. I do concede, however, a significant number of electrons may have been inconvenienced.
