Born and raised in Worcester’s Quinsigamond Village, Guy Glodis has built his public service career around fixing what's broken with state government, giving a voice to the taxpayers of the Commonwealth, and tackling tough issues head-on.

Elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1996, and then to the State Senate in 1998, Guy Glodis pursued a legislative agenda built around working families, economic growth, health care, education reform, his outspoken support for fiscal responsibility, lower taxes, and reforming the bilingual education system into an English immersion format. During his first term, Guy notably defended Harvard Pilgrim members by advocating for legislation to require state intervention when an HMO approaches bankruptcy. He was also best defined by his support and advocacy for veterans, senior citizen tax relief, brown fields cleanup at economic development sites, special education funding, and much more.

During his tenure in the State Senate, Guy was appointed Chairman of the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Public Safety, through which he would be responsible for all police and fire support, as well as anti-terrorism, efforts. For his efforts, Guy was recognized as Legislator of the Year by the State Police Association of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Coalition of Police, and the Massachusetts Corrections Officers Federated Union.

At the conclusion of his service as Public Safety Chairman, Guy was selected to Chair the pivotal Joint Committee on Insurance  where he championed a reform agenda advocating and protecting consumer rights. Chairman Glodis was the lead sponsor on initiatives to ban the use of credit scoring in setting insurance premiums, expand financial disclosure for insurance companies, lower auto insurance rates, prevent insurance fraud, and expand mandatory benefits for health plan members.

Guy was elected Worcester County Sheriff in 2004 on a platform aimed at professionalizing and modernizing the Sheriff's Office.   Throughout his 6-year term, he implemented more than 50 new reforms and programs, including: national accreditation by the American Correctional Association, an anti-nepotism hiring  policy, mandatory promotional testing, Almost Home halfway house, Reverse 911 countywide alert system, Substance Treatment Opportunity Program (STOP), Responsible Fatherhood Initiative, and many more.   Due to the success of these initiatives, Guy was honored with the New England Council of Crime and Delinquency Manson-Robinson Award for Innovation, a feature in American Jails Magazine, the Patrice O'Malley Hagan Award from Pernet Family Health Services, among others. 

For 14 years, Guy Glodis has brought much-needed oversight, transparency, and reform to every office he's held.  He is now focused on using his extensive experience to bring fresh insight and innovation to the Auditor's Office. 

As Auditor, Guy will realize the full potential of the Auditor's Office by focusing upon job creation, economic development, tax relief, and good government.  Specifically, he will promote the use of in-state jobs and labor, defend the prevention of unfunded state mandates, provide greater oversight of federal stimulus funding, and reduce wasteful government spending by applying best-use practices to surplus state property, among others.
