The Power of One (Vote)

I wanted to thank all those who said so many gracious things about me in the Sacramento Bee this last week. So far, the comments are 19 to 1 in my favor—they seem to outweigh the opinions expressed by the board. I hope that your opinions are representative of what we will see on Election Day.
I can now count the number of days until the election on one hand and I am very excited. All the right things are coming together at the right time. Many of those with absentee ballots have already cast them and I have had a lot of people indicate that they voted for me. If you are one of those people—thank you! There are still a large portion of people who have not made their decision on whom to vote. That leaves room for you to call 10 of your not-voted-yet friends and encourage them to cast a vote for me.
In fact, if you are eager for a new direction on the school board, I would encourage you to vote only for me. Why, you ask, would I ask you to only vote once when you have three votes in that race? It’s simple—if you have one candidate that you are particularly interested in, to cast votes for two other people simply because you can effectively dilutes or cancels out a vote for your favorite in the race. By voting only for one, in this case, you ensure that your candidate (Lance Christensen) gets 100% of your vote and not only 33.3%. And I would appreciate 100% of your support.
Please tell your family, friends and neighbors…
Additionally, if you would like to get one of the last signs that I have left, or canvas your neighborhood with some of my fliers, please drop me an email at votelanceforschoolboard@gmail.com and we’ll get the material to you right away. What’s more, I have a handful of 3’x6’ signs that would be very useful for holding up at busy intersections or near polling places (at the legal distance, I might add). I hope to see you getting out the vote!
