Yesterday was Primary Elections Day for Arizona, and it included my City Council run. It was ALSO one of the hottest days of the year for us. I got going at 5:30am, so I could get ready and go campaign at the polling places. I earned many votes from people who were undecided as they walked in, and I met many people who had already intended to vote for me.
What a neat experience, but WOW what a hot one. It was nearly 120 degrees, and there was no shade once we got to high noon. But I had to do it!
The votes are being verified now, but it looks like I managed to earn 41% of the votes cast and I needed 50% to earn an automatic seat on the Council. So that means I get to duke it out with the other challengers for the General Election in November.
I've already established a new campaign strategy, and my friends are rallying behind me to help me WIN in November!
Thanks to everyone who has helped me get this far. This has been a huge challenge and we'll all have a reason to celebrate when we get to the finish line.
THANKS!!!
