“It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over”: Vote Nov. 5th!
There is an election next Tuesday, Election Day, November 5 (plus Early Voting is still available now until Sunday November 3 from noon – 6 p.m. ) and your vote matters!
In this heavily democratic city, normally if a candidate wins in the Primary election, he/she is guaranteed victory in the general – which is one reason voter turnout is often worse in November. Many assume after the Primary the elections are over. But there are several seats still being challenged in the upcoming November 5th general election where all parties participate – from Democrat to Write-In candidates. Flash!
