Endorsements
Endorsed by Pam Cash-Roper
Retired
Former 2nd Vice Chair of Chatham County Democratic Party
“My family has been in Eastern Chatham County for generations. I was born in a small community called Seaforth that’s now in the middle of Jordan Lake. With the change and the growth that’s here and more coming, it’s important to me that have elected leaders in Cary who care and consider the part of Chatham County that’s also in Cary when they make important decisions. I met Cary Town Council candidate Sarika Bansal in Pittsboro and she struck me as someone who will represent all of her district – not just the Wake County side. As a lifelong Chathamite, I wholeheartedly endorse Sarika Bansal for Cary Town Council.

She is someone I have trusted to help me navigate challenging situations both personally and professionally.

"You epitomize the type of person that we need as a leader in this state. You epitomize the type of person that today, should be a member of Cary's (town) council. And I want to make sure in the future that when there is an election cycle — one thing we fought for in civil rights was voting rights; one thing we fought for was diversity in public service. You epitomize the type of diversity, the type of knowledge, and the type of expertise that needs to be serving right here in Wake County and Cary (town) council. There is no better place you can serve. And I hope and I trust that you can be there one day very, very soon."
