To the editor,
Marblehead needs a leader who is informed, balanced, and unafraid to make hard choices— that is why Yael Magen needs to be elected to the Select Board.
As a municipal attorney, Yael brings a deep understanding of how towns function—from legal structures to the practical realities of budgets and community engagement. Her professional background alone would make her an asset to the Select Board, but it’s her character that truly sets her apart.
Yael approaches every challenge calmly and with clarity. She listens intently, thinks rationally, and does not let emotion cloud her judgment. That doesn’t mean she’s not passionate—far from it. She’s a fighter and will fight for our town, with respect, empathy, and a willingness to see all sides. Yael is strong without being overbearing, decisive without being dismissive.
In a time when divisiveness too often defines our discourse, Yael will bring people together. She builds consensus, fosters collaboration, and leads with humility. Most importantly, Yael’s common sense approach will lead Marblehead in a fiscally responsible manner—always keeping an eye on the long-term health of our town.
Marblehead needs steady, thoughtful, and experienced leadership.There is no one better than Yael. I urge you to support her candidacy for Select Board.
Sincerely,
Arielle Kingsbury
