THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 8, 2025 ~ Political Announcement ~ Page 7 Michele Capone announces her candidacy for Ward 1 City Councilor M y name is Michele Capone, and I am running for the Everett City Council Ward 1 open seat. This is my fi rst run for public offi ce, and I would like to thank everyone for their encouragement and support of my campaign. I have lived in Everett my entire life and have made 383 Broadway, in Ward 1, my home, for over 28 years. Like many people, I balanced my time raising my family and contributing to my community. Now that my children, Zachary and Gabrielle, have grown up, it is time to give back to the city that has given so much to me. My fi rst introduction to politics was from my mother, Camelle Pensavalli Simione. She served on the Everett School Committee twice and as the Assistant City Clerk until she succumbed to cancer at the young age of 58. She fi rst ran for School Committee in 1978 when I was nine years old. She was outspoken and ran for offi ce when many women didn’t enter the political arena. Mom instilled in me valuable lessons about life, including not being afraid to ask tough questions and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. To honor her memory, I have chosen to use her fi rst campaign colors, red and white. I grew up in the Village area of Everett between Teddy Peanut Butter and Monsanto Chemical Company, now Gateway Shopping Center. My great grandparents, on my mother’s side, were Italian immigrants and settled in the neighborhood in 1890. They raised 12 children MICHELE CAPONE | SEE PAGE 8 Law Offices of JOSEPH D.
