Last week in Lawrence we followed Fran and his partner Elissa who are campaigning together for seats on the city council and school committee. Here, Fran secures a handmade sign in downtown Lawrence that he and Elissa made for $20 using a tarp and white duct tape — they are grassroots, through and through. As election day approaches (the preliminary election is September 26th, followed by the general election November 6th), they decided to invest in professionally printed banners, which they designed and put up all over town since we last were there. Onwards!
