Here I am pretending to give a speech at the stump. The crowd got a kick out of it! Some were wondering what was to come in the future.

Here I am before it started. It was a great place to be. It was a fun day and I met a lot of interesting people. (photo by John R. Dollriehs)

Here I am talking to Shirley Green. She is pointing out people in the crowd that I should know. It is hard to be new, you need someone to help you remember names. (Photo by John R. Dollriehs)

Introduction of the Candidates was given by State Senator John Land.

Remarks were given by Jim Rex, Superintendent of Education. Jim has been doing a great job, too bad he is surrounded by Republican. Imagine what he can do if we get him more democrats to work with. VOTE DEMOCRAT!!!!
