Today, nomination day, started as any other, with the exception, that I would be officially a candidate for Alderman of Ward 4. Thank you to all who signed my papers, and now Let the Race begin.
During the nomination process, I found out the Sean, Jane, and Brad are definitely running (I saw them or their campaign managers). However, that left another 8. I am sure based on the plethora of signs appearing, that all will file. Tomorrow we find out for sure.
I would like to thank those of you that were able to help Lynne this morning. She was most appreciative, and there is always something to be said for bad luck, and resolution through the help of a few friends.
I would like to apologize to the clerk whose table I left my coffee on... I am sure you didn't need anything else on your desk. When I finally left the mayhem of lobbyists, cameramen, reporters, and returned to the calm of the City Hall Lobby, I realized what I had done.
To all of my supporters, this race will be short - My oath to you during this campaign, I will answer all emails and questions as quickly as possible. I will smile. I will not twist anything that I do not know to be fact, and if I do not know, I will find an answer. I hope that you can all challenge me to be the best I can be, and that none of your concerns will be "swept under the rug" and ignored or treated as an oversight by me.
If during the campaign, I adhere to this, I will win the support of all and the election. Thank you in advance.
