I would like to do a big “shout out” to all the islanders that showed what passion and dedication can do; how a community can rally together, put political differences aside and come together for a common cause.
A special thank you to all of you that put signs out, made phone calls, waved signs, donated and worked the polls. We could not have done this without you.
Election Day was one of the best performances by our cities in years. You showed up and voted.
A special thank you to Commissioner Diggins for taking a shift and to new candidates Carol Whitmore and Mike Roth for coming out and talking to residents.
We have proven that grassroots works. Our voices can be heard. That our little city has a big voice.
Now the next chapter begins. We still need to get some of our candidates elected in November.
The good guys have been given the opportunity to make a difference.
