Hi all!!!
Long time no see...
Well the election is over and as far as I am concerned the good guys won. Or at least the candidate that I was working for won (so did her party who will form government for a third term now).
Had a really good Election Day and the Team I was working with really came together and put my plan into action. I couldn't have asked for more out of the Team. It's really cool when a plan you put together comes out nicely and with the desired results. In 2005 she only got 5885 votes and had to wait until after 11pm to be confirmed as elected. This year she got 8663 (with absentee ballots still to be counted) and was confirmed 1.5 hours after the polls closed at 8:00pm. It was a great feeling.
But now it is over and I am trying to recharge my batteries. The best thing, I am back home with Shannon and the girls and sleeping in my own bed.
One more thing to do politics tomorrow (Conservative Party Riding Association AGM) and then it should be put to the backburner for a while.
Here's a pic of the Candidate (green outfit), Shirley Bond, and a large portion of the Team. These people became like family over the last few months.
Now here's hoping I can get caught up on this thread and not miss out on anything.
