Who Supports Nelly?
We Do


I trust that Nelly will listen and get things done that will sustain and improve all the best things about our community. That's why I am voting for her as Senator for District 17.
As a small business owner I am voting for Nelly because I trust her to listen and get things accomplished. My business is my sole source of income for my family and as economic times keep getting tougher, I can't mess around with that. I know Nelly will fight to keep small businesses at the heart of our local economy as she understands so much rests on this - our families’ livelihoods, our kids’ education, and our kids’ futures.

Nelly is a powerhouse who isn't afraid to get her hands dirty! I have known Nelly for a long time and she has always had great ideas. But she also has the determination to see them through no matter how difficult it gets! Now I see that determination in her listening to members of our community about the issues that matter to them.


As a physician and Lincoln resident, I have spent my career thinking about how to solve the health and wellbeing crisis for my patients and neighbors. When I met Nelly, I realized that if anyone could fix things for the better she could. Nelly has my vote on 11/3 and my confidence to bring what our community needs to State Senate.
We’ll be voting for Nelly Burdette in November to be our State Senator
Sally Hay & Dee Bird, Lincon


she has shown time and again that her commitment is to ALL the people, not just those who are wealthy or well-connected.


same passion and determination to serving our communities and working toward a future we can believe in.

As a Rhode Islander and teacher, I have spent years living in both the towns of Lincoln and North Smithfield, always in District 17. Nelly understands the issues facing families and will bring that


We all know that economic times are tough – and it’s difficult to see how our kids are going to be able to find jobs that will allow them to stay here in Rhode Island.
Nelly understands that and is ready to fight to keep small businesses at the heart of our local economy
Ryan Hammond, North Smithfield


As a registered nurse, I appreciate a candidate who knows how important it is for people to have access to high quality affordable health care. I see patients who cannot afford their therapies and I think working to fix our flawed healthcare system is the best thing that we can do to protect people in our community.
I recently graduated college and as much as I love Rhode Island, the cost of living is too high. I did not have a choice other than to move back in with my mom. I know Nelly will fight to bring down costs and make the lives of normal Rhode Islanders affordable.
Sam & Carson Cole, Lincoln
My name is Moira Carraher. I am a Lincoln resident, a mother, and public educator. I am very passionate about the issues that face our current government.


I support Dr Nelly Burdette because she is committed to working hard for our community. I feel confident that she will work to make a difference. She is knowledgeable, passionate and an excellent listener.


I'm a woman in my 60s and have been living in Lincoln for over 30 years. I have seen politicians come and go over the years and things stay the same. It's time for a change, no more business as usual. Nelly has real life experience working with people, as well as organizing events and projects. She is a daughter of immigrant parents, so she knows what it means to work hard and get things done. We need Nelly Burdette to be our next State Senator.
Poyee Oster, Lincoln
Like Nelly, I am a cancer survivor. So, that means that Nelly understands how to take on one of the hardest fights there are, and to keep going even when times are tough. I know we can trust Nelly to stay in the fight, whether that’s fixing our healthcare system, standing up for better education for our kids, or supporting our small businesses. I ask you to join me in voting for Nelly for State Senate on or before November 3rd.
Gail B, Lincoln
My work -empowering women for their families, fair and accessible housing, health care and advocacy -shares Nelly’s priorities and focus. I support her!
