Gardner Mayor Nicholson Turns in more than 10 times required signatures
On July 14, 2025, Gardner Mayor Michael Nicholson turned in 632 signatures from registered voters. Nicholson only needed 50 signatures but overwhelming support delivered more than 600. It has been exactly 5 years since Nicholson was sworn in on 7-14-2020.
The Mayor issued this statement after turning in the signatures. “Five years ago, after a very interesting special election cycle, I had the honor of being sworn into office as Gardner’s 20th Mayor. Today, I turned in my nomination papers for re-election and officially qualified to be on the ballot this November 2025.
Thank you to everyone who signed my nomination papers and to all those who offered to bring a sheet home to their families and friends so they could sign as well. Although we only needed 50 signatures to qualify for the ballot, we were able to turn in signatures from 632 registered voters. (no Gardner phone number pun intended with the 632)
I could not be more thankful for all of the support and encouragement that I’ve received this election cycle and since I launched my first campaign for this office.I’m very proud of all we’ve been able to accomplish together over the last five years, and look forward to what the future has to bring.I’m asking for your vote this November to keep Gardner moving forward”
