Primary day!
Well it’s been almost a week but I survived the primary last Tuesday. Top two move to the general election in this first local election for our county Board of Education and I finished in 2nd! Mailed in ballots are still being counted but the margin between 1st and 2nd has shrunk to 4.4% or only 751 votes. Given I had no volunteers at the polls, the iPad I use with a voice app to talk died by mid-day (i was there all 13 hours) and the shutdown also shut down my planned doorknocking in March/April, I feel great coming in 2nd. Over 7000 people voted for the bottom three candidates so November is within reach! #campaigningwithdisability #speechdisability #Election #Disability #AAC
