RUNOFF = CHANGE...

and change opens the door of opportunity!
This is how the Dec. 3 runoff is kicking off for me. I am pleased: 

My hat's off to you! You've stayed true to your values, stood your ground, worked hard, and treated people right. I think Winder wants you to represent them. And now you know there's a new Winder ready to build something with you. Exciting! – Dylan 

Stay positive. You had a HUGE showing! – Lynn 
You ran a great campaign and I'm proud to have had even a small role in it. Now we move on to victory in December! – Carolyn 

I think this shows great promise for change, freshness, and newness on the horizon.  There were 412 votes FOR change! – Burgundy 

This means to me that there is a tremendous amount of hope and likelihood for Dec 3rd. Way too often and way too "usual," the incumbent wins. Winder seems to be ready for change! – Tory 
Thank you so much. It is time for a fresh perspective, new ideas and a woman on the city council. Now is the time! – Freta 

Yay...I get to keep my sign in the yard. Proudly. – Susan 

If signs were not so costly I'd have one every five feet and people would come from all over Winder to see'em....all 95 of 'em!!" – Jackie
"I would have liked a clean and marvelous victory for your sweet self, but another chance at making the world a better place thru the system is a good sign. You have an amazing indomitable spirit ... my forever role model." – Ellen 

Frankly, I consider it a win that you have a run-off. Change is hard. I'm excited for you and for us. – Cloud 

Hang in and change is never easy but can be accomplished with strength! – Becca 

Hang tight, you can do it! – Ursula
