Congratulations too to all the candidates who were willing to put their names out there for this important service to the community. Adam Smith, Alisa Bowman, Alan Earnshaw, and Ellen Lewis will join me on the ballot in November. And I hope we see Wally Vinovskis and Sherrine Eid continue to offer their expertise, leadership and enthusiasm to the residents of our district.
Most of all, thanks to all the community members who voted yesterday. Elections– particularly local primaries like this one– have important consequences for all of our lives.

PS: For those interested in the details, I ended up with the third most votes in the Democratic primary (behind Alisa Bowman and Ellen Lewis) and the fourth most votes in the Republican primary (behind Adam Smith, Alan Earnshaw, and Alisa Bowman). You can see the specific vote totals here.
This was a tough election for school board. Too many worthwhile candidates to choose among.
