I can't thank you enough for your outpouring of support. Election day was Thursday, October 4. You have showed me that I was worthy of making the Run-off. (in order to win, I had to have 51% of the vote) I have a true desire to serve as your next City Council person. Just as I have worked hard as a school board member, listening to parents, advocating for students, and supporting our teachers, and principals; I will work harder for you on the City Council. I will put our community first, I will continue to develop partnerships with community organizations to make our district a great place to live, learn, and laugh. I will be responsive to my constituents.
I will work collaboratively with my fellow colleagues; always in a respectful manner. I will agree to disagree with integrity and understanding. I will ensure that I have an advisory council in place as not to be the sole decision maker of the district.
I encourage all constituents who reside in District 1 to shop in the district. This creates economic prosperity within our district.
I encourage community organizations to re-invent themselves; we have to ban together and be neighborly. Create a buddy system, phone bank, and/or an e-mail alert system to be shared with neighbors. Networking is key in the fight against crime. Support our Police Officers' by offering prayer for their families.
It is going to take the ENTIRE community to make this a reality.
Please tell everyone to vote early!! October 19-November 3. Election day is Thursday November 8
Thank you for your Support and Vote!
