The Calm After the Storm


THE CALM AFTER THE STORM



Waiting for the next shoe to drop, but for now my petition to run in the Primary for the Independence line on 9/12/2017 has been deemed valid regardless of the objections from a Harrison voter of the Republican party. Forever grateful and thankful to have come this far. Even if you don't make it to the end, getting there will give you enlightenment and knowledge that you will have never received before. So, the process is a great experience and if you ever say you want to do it? Just do it and you can never say you didn't try. You can apply that to anything in life! Like one of the speakers mentioned in the Harrison High School Graduation, to be successful you must " Think out of the box, be a little crazy and have Integrity", which is now one of my favorite quotes. (:   It is certainly not easy to figure this all out without a party backing you, but thanks to the internet  and to all who have given me the confidence and information to move forward, made it possible.

CERTIFICATE OF ELECTION A Certificate of Election certifies your placement on a party line after you win an election. This was for the primary election on 9/12/17 and this was so exciting to receive.  Looking forward, the November 7th election is upon us, I am humbled and proud to be a part of this process.  I have learned a lot over the last couple of months and have chartered waters where I have never been before, and will make me a better person.  I encourage everyone to step out of the box, don’t be afraid of the unknown, for without trying there can be no defeats or wins, you learn with both scenarios. Good luck to all in the upcoming election. 

Politics - Ballot Position - Primary

Politics - Ballot Position - Primary Politics - Ballot Position - Primary So, I left off from my last blog post about Ballot Position. In the drawing for ballot position I got the #2 spot out of 2 spots. My identifier number is 2F. So now we wait for September 12th for the Primary Election. A primary election is an election that narrows the field of candidates before a general election for office. Primary elections are one means by which a political party or a political alliance nominates candidates for an upcoming general election or by-election . Primaries are common in the United States , where their origins are traced to the progressive movement to take the power of candidate nomination from party leaders to the people.
