People of Salem,

I, EJ DiMera, will be the first to admit that my family name is often the subject of public scrutiny. But like the residents of Salem, at the heart of me is an honest family man and long-time Salem resident. I'm not a candidate who will sit back and watch the town of Salem lose its way; I'm here to give us the jump-start we need to thrive in a struggling economy.

I come from the world of business, and because of that, I come armed with knowledge that my opponent simply does not possess. With that knowledge, I intend to spark much needed economic change. No more deficits, no more debt, no more mortgaging our children's futures because of our spending addiction. I plan to use my business expertise to eliminate Salem's debt and put the residents of Salem at ease. It's time to take control of the future.

In addition, I plan to revamp Salem's overtly corrupt police department. It's time that justice is brought down on criminals such as John Black, who have a complete disregard for the well-being of Salem's residents. I intend to be tough on criminals where it's due, and help keep the streets of Salem a safer place.

While the DiMera name is known far and wide, I hope that the people of Salem see beyond the name for what I truly am: an honest family man and long-time Salem resident, ready to tackle the hard-hitting issues head-on.

Sincerely,
EJ DiMera
