Uphill Battle

Let's be the first to unseat an incumbent in almost 40 years!

Thank you all who voted. Our efforts to increase voter participation were successful. In 2008, only 862 people voted. On April 3rd, 1219 people voted.

The good news is we received the third highest votes. The bad news is it wasn't enough to avoid a run-off election.

An incumbent hasn't been unseated in nearly 40 years! Clearly, the people are ready for a fresh start. This is an uphill battle and we need everyone to come out and vote again on Tuesday, April 17th.
