On Tuesday, June 23, Mashpee voters reelected David Weeden to the board of selectman to a full three-year term. David received 1,533 votes and is the only Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Citizen elected to the board of selectman for the town.
David, who also serves as a member of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Council and as the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, served an 8-month term on the board of selectman after winning a special election in October of 2019. In his position on the board of selectman, David has worked toward clean water, sustainable growth and development and affordable housing.
Having tribal members that serve on committees and boards in the town is critical to protecting our ancestral homeland. Congratulations David on your win and thank you for continuing to protect Mashpee.
