Page 2 DEBATE | FROM Page 1 candidates used some familiar talking points for this particular election, with Markey calling Deaton a future rubber stamp for President Donald Trump’s legislative agenda if elected and Deaton questioning whether Markey would be able to serve out his full sixyear term if he is victorious. Markey, who turned 80 on the campaign trail this past summer, was strongly challenged on his age by his former Democratic challenger, U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton, who made it a focal issue of his run. Markey would be 86 years old at the end of the sixyear term he seeks on Nov. 3. Voters apparently did not buy Moulton’s argument on age in September, as the Malden native crushed Moulton, 65%35%, in the primary, advancing to face Deaton in the November election. Markey went right for the THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2026 Deaton is in a Senate race partisan jugular in Tuesday’s debate, linking Deaton with President Trump in his very fi rst statement and then continuing it throughout, invoking Trump’s name nearly 40 times by count, in the course of the 60-minute debate. “WE’RE STILL HERE!” Since 1947 MALDEN AUTO BODY Book online: Maldenauto.com 49 Robin St., Everett, MA 617-389-3030 * Maldenab@yahoo.com Over 79 years of exceptional service!

Markey, in the campaign against Moulton, continually brushed aside references to his age and longevity, saying he has more energy and motivation now than even at other points in his life.

He’ll continue the majority for the Republicans,” Markey asserted. Throughout the debate Deaton, an attorney and former U.S. Marine, 59, continued to disavow the party label and pushed back that he had his own brand of political motivation. “The Democrats are going to win the House, and the Democrats are going to win the Senate,” Deaton said. “You have a chance to send a nonpartisan person like me, who will really put America fi rst and decide, ‘Is it good for Massachusetts and America?’ And if it is, I’ll support it.” “He’s trying to pretend that he’s an independent and that hicles leaving the roadway and posing a danger to nearby homes.

On Markey’s longevity, Deaton predicted the Senator has “run out of time to get his priorities accomplished.” “Senator Markey will be ignored. He’ll be relegated to the corner of the Senate with his little slogans,” Deaton said. “Even with his party in control, he’s never going to be heard from again — if you make it that long.” *** In the November 3 general election, the polls are open from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. in Malden and in every community across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

She also stressed the need for an immediate safety measure: installing an illuminated “Slow Bend” sign along the roadway to alert drivers to the curve. “I am concerned that this is a death waiting to happen; it needs to be taken care of immediately,” Guarino-Sawaya said. “I did meet with the mayor earlier, and he is working on it right now; he has contacted agencies, and I am praying that we do what we need to do and that this doesn’t happen again.” Guarino-Sawaya also emphasized that driver behavior remains a key part of the problem, adding, “People do need to slow down, though, I do need to say that.” Advertise dvertise 781-286-8500 i in the Adv ca Classifieds!

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2026 Page 3 ~ POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT ~ Sean M. Salazar Announces Candidacy for the Northeast Metro Tech School Committee M y name is Sean M. Salazar, and I currently represent Malden on the Northeast Metropolitan Regional Vocational School Committee. Earlier this year, I was appointed to fi ll Malden’s vacant seat and am now running for that position in the November 3rd election. I’m a Career and Vocational Technical Education teacher at Everett High School, where I teach Hospitality Management and Culinary Arts. Before becoming an educator, I spent 20 years working in the hospitality industry. I am also an active member of the Everett Teachers Association and Massachusetts Teachers Association. My professional background has given me the opportunity to experience Career and Technical Education from two perspectives: as someone who spent years working in industry and as a teacher preparing students to enter it. I believe Career and Technical Education is about much more than teaching a trade. It’s about helping students discover their interests, develop technical and academic skills, learn to communicate and solve problems and gain the confi dence to make informed decisions about their futures. Whether students pursue employment, apprenticeships, college or military service, our responsibility is to make sure they have meaningful opportunities and are prepared for whatever comes next. Since joining the School Committee, I’ve been particularly involved in reviewing our policies and considering how they affect the people who learn and work at Northeast. I’ve pushed for the strongest protections possible under our Protect Act policy and believe that work must continue beyond adopting a policy. We need to understand how it aff ects students, families and staff and ensure that everyone responsible for implementing it, including our School Resource Officers, understands and follows its requirements. I’m also interested in bringing student clubs and activities into our conversations to better understand what support they need. That includes making sure LGBTQIA+ students, students of color and other underrepresented members of our school community have opportunities to be heard. I support Northeast’s continued development toward a polytechnic model and the opportunities it can create for students pursuing diff erent educational and career pathways. I also believe that building relationships with fellow School Committee members is essential to identifying shared priorities across all 12 communities. Underlying all of this is my commitment to transparency and accountability. Families and communities deserve to understand the decisions being made, the reasons behind them and how those decisions aff ect their students. One aspect of this election that may be unfamiliar to voters is how Northeast’s regional School Committee is elected. Northeast serves 12 communities: Chelsea, Malden, Melrose, North Reading, Reading, Revere, Saugus, Stoneham, POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT | SEE Page 10 Lawrence A.

Whelan School for Fire Prevention Week By Melissa MooreRandall indergarten, fi rst- and second-grade students at the A.C. Whelan School were treated to a special visit from Firefi ghter Ryan DiCarlo of the Revere Fire Department last week. DiCarlo’s visit coincided with Fire Prevention Week 2026. During the visit, DiCarlo spoke to the students about core survival habK its, the importance of smoke alarms, family escape plans and overall fi re safety. In addition, he demonstrated the use of his full bunker gear to show the necessities fi refi ghters take when heading to a fi re emergency. Students were able to have a question-and-answer session.

He also impressed upon them to view first responders as friendly, approachable community helpers, which is also taught in school. Students were given firefi ghter hats, stickers and coloring books as a gift. The theme for Fire Prevention Week and Fire Prevention Month 2026 (sponsored by the National Fire Protection Association) is “Charge into Fire Safety™: Safe Charging Is a Superpower.” The focus is the dangers of lithium-ion batteries found in phones, laptops, e-bikes, scooters, power tools and toys; safe charging habits, including keeping devices on hard, fl at surfaces and unplugging them when fully charged; and to stop using devices immediately if they show signs of overheating, swelling, hissing or smoking.

POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT | FROM Page 3 Wakefield, Winchester, Winthrop and Woburn. Although each School Committee seat is designated for a particular community, voters throughout the regional district participate in electing those representatives. This means the election for Malden’s seat also appears on ballots in the other member communities. While I represent Malden, the work of the School Committee affects students and families throughout Northeast’s district. Decisions involving educational programs, budgets, district policies and student opportunities carry responsibilities that extend beyond any one community. The opening of Northeast’s new school building marks an important moment in the district’s history. Its classrooms, technical shops and shared spaces provide new opportunities for students to learn and prepare for their futures. I’m proud of my work as a CTE educator and grateful for the opportunity to serve on the Northeast School Committee. I look forward to continuing conversations with residents throughout the district about the school’s future and the opportunities available to its students. Sean M.
