Yes, I am IN! Over 300 registered voters signed the petition to get me on the ballot as the Independent candidate for City Council District 9. Thank you to everybody who actually opened their doors for some strange Chinese guy, and signing the petition! In this day and age of door-to-door SCAMMERS, that's a LOT to say about TRUST.
So, in return, I have to return the trust. First, you can trust me NOT to use the list for anything other than for campaign purposes. The petition will be turned over to the Election Board. They check the signatures for validity of registered voters.
I will keep a copy for reference to the addresses to visit when I do the door-to-door meet-n-greet to remind you to vote for me. After the elections, the list gets shredded. When I run again, the whole process starts all over again. So, you can be sure your won't get junk mail because you sign a petition to get me on the ballot in good faith.
Second, you can trust me to listen to what you want me to bring up when I am elected to Council. If there're any opportunities to bring up YOUR most pressing issue of concern to the GENERAL public, I will bring it up, somewhere, somehow.
Third, you can trust me to maintain CIVILITY during my service in City Council. Don't expect a whole lot of dramatic outbursts, food throwing, or anything that might detract from the course of Council business. If there's anything that will not be in the best interest of District 9, as I see it, and NOBODY is listening, I will certainly make an issue of it somewhere, like on this blog. I am really just another normal guy trying to get along, while getting in my say-so.
I will be posting mostly at Safe Streets For Kids for the duration until 1 April. So, see you there!
