Thoughts on the Election
The last two months have been thrilling for me. On the eve of the election I feel great about the campaign we’ve run and chances of defeating the establishment.
Friends have come to support me by raising money and volunteering countless hours. I’ve met new people also willing to give time and money to see some much needed change in the City of St. Louis. Throughout the Ward I’ve got neighbors resolved to see me elected.
I can tell you, on the night before the election, I feel victorious already. The experience of running for office has been immensely rewarding in so many ways. Most importantly is I know my message is on target and that I can affect positive change.
I also know we are not done yet. We are going to brave the cold on Tuesday and greet voters as they arrive at our three polling places. We have not rested or taken anything or anyone for granted in the last two months and we are not about to start tonight. When the polls close at 7pm Tuesday night we’ll start to rest. But only for an hour…
At 8pm Tuesday night we celebrate an outstanding grassroots campaign. Click here for details.
Particular thanks goes out to Corey Mohn, Susan Newton, Michael Kime, Dan Icolari and Jeffrey Smith for all their hard work and dedication. So many others helped as well – I will thank them each in a post-election entry.
