Ciro L. Raspante - Ciro For Utica Common Council 1st Ward

🗳️ Election Day is here!
From day 1, my campaign has never been about politics… it’s about people, progress, and possibility. It’s about building a Utica that keeps moving forward, together.

It’s about the families & neighbors across Utica’s 1st Ward. The small business owners in Downtown, Baggs Square West, Franklin Square, & throughout the 1st Ward.

No matter how today turns out, I’ll forever be humbled & grateful for the folks from all corners of our city & the Mohawk Valley who’ve stopped me to share ideas & encouragement.. for every conversation, every handshake, & every “good luck” yelled in my direction.

Let’s show up, make our voices heard, & keep this city shining.

Let’s go!

🫶Utica 1st Ward… 5 days to November 4th 🗳️

📬If you’re in Utica’s 1st Ward, I’m in your mailbox! We’re one week from voting day… spread the word! 🫶💪

Let’s go!

🫶 I spent part of the weekend putting up campaign signs around Nichols, Blandina, Lansing, & Mary Streets. My biggest take-away: People just want to be heard.

This gave me the amazing opportunity to meet & talk with residents…. Many of which jumped at the chance to talk to someone who would listen. This is what matters most!

I heard concerns regarding neighborhood safety / limited patrol presence, to littered streets and public nuisance issues.

This is exactly why I chose to run for Utica’s 1st Ward Council!

Yes, budgets, spending, and city finances are big parts of the job… but it all starts here, with real conversations, real people, and boots on the ground.

This is where I thrive… connecting, listening, caring, and working toward solutions that actually make a difference.

I’ll be running a little late due to a previous obligation, however planning to attend even though it’s not my running district… I’m
sure I’ll see some familiar faces!
