If you have not met Nicole Watts yet, now is the perfect time. She is stepping forward to be your next representative for Onondaga County Legislature, District 9, bringing over 15 years of dedication to the Northside and a career built on local nonprofit leadership.

Nicole is not a distant politician. She is your neighbor. She has lived here for over a decade and personally understands how Northside voices have often felt unheard and overlooked. That is why she is running: to ensure every resident’s voice is valued and respected.

She believes in building a thriving and inclusive Northside where empowered residents shape meaningful policies and where everyone has a stake in our community’s future.

Nicole’s campaign is built around community empowerment. With decades of nonprofit experience, she is ready to:

• Amplify residents’ voices by making sure decisions reflect the Northside’s real needs.

• Strengthen neighborhood-focused policy so local concerns are not sidelined.

• Foster an inclusive and vibrant community where all residents can thrive.

I am proud to endorse Nicole Watts for District 9. Her leadership is grounded, community-minded, and deeply invested in our neighborhood’s future.
