I’m taking category by category and highlighting some locals who you may want to consider worthy of your vote (BTW St Peter’s Fiesta is currently trailing Topsfield Fair and Good Harbor is close to Crane’s) so if you haven’t voted in the Play Category get on it!- Voting in the Play Category here

Bakery (Bread) Virgilio’s
BBQ- Smokin Jim’s, The Farm Bar and Grille
Beer menu- Franklin Cape Ann, Cape Ann Brewing
Breakfast- George’s, Sugar Mag’s, Willow Rest (as you know my love of Gloucester Breakfast joints is unmatched- way too many to list so we will stick with the nominated but Mamie’s Kitchen, and Fort Square should be at least nominated as well)
Burger- Passports
Cocktail Bar- Franklin Cape Ann
Coffee Shop- Lone Gull, Cape Ann Coffee Café Sicilia and Pleasant St -None are nominated all deserve to be!
Confectionery- Nichols Candies and Turtle Alley
Farmer’s Market- Cape Ann Farmer’s Market
General Excellence- The Market, Duckworth’s is not nominated but I’d say needs to be a write in.
Gourmet Market- Savour Wine and Cheese
Lobster- Causeway, Lobsta Land and Roy Moore are Nominated, For Lobster Pool and Seaport Grille not to be nominated is silly IMO
Italian- a write in for La Trattoria Gloucester only makes sense
Lobster Roll- Seaport Grille
Mexican- Jalepenos– for Tacos Lupita Gloucester needs to be a write in as well.
Pizza- Giuseppes and The Willow Rest. There are so many great pizza joints in Gloucester and everyone has their favorites you could write in any number- Sebastians, Sclafanis, ect, ect ect
Pub Food- Franklin and Topside Grille
Raw Bar- Lat 43 nominated, Rudder could be a write in
Sandwiches- There is no Gloucester nomination and you could easily write in Virgilios, Sclafanis, or Willow Rest here
Seafood Prepared- the Causeway and The Rudder
Sushi- Latitude 43
Thai- Thai Choice could be a write in
and when you’re done you can vote in the Play Categories-
So far I’ve featured local nominees in the Play and Eat Categories, in a couple days I’ll highlight the Shop, Renew, Kids, and Live Categories.

Voting in Precinct 2, Ward 2
Vote, and let your voice be heard!
My voting station was at the parish center at Our Lady of Good Voyage. There was a small line, but it moved quickly.
It’s a pretty big ballot, so it doesn’t really fit in the folder provided for voting privacy, but I don’t think we need to worry…
Thanks to all the folks who work at the polls to keep the democratic machine running clean and fair!
No matter who wins these elections, there will be a lot of upset people afterwards. Let’s hope we can all be understanding and respectful of each other, even if we strongly disagree… NPR’s “This American Life” has an interesting podcast on this topic this week. Although I am pretty frank about my principles in public (I hope), I avoid talking too much in public about for whom I vote. I don’t want that to get in the way of my ministry, or to be interpreted as my endorsing specific candidates on behalf of the Church. I have to be able to talk to people of all political persuasions, and some people just can’t see past political differences. Fortunately, my friends include people representing a wide range of opinions. I hope it stays that way.
Good Morning Gloucester
