A New Campaign Begins
Back on May 19th Judge Hulslander dismissed the plaintiff’s request to overturn the April 13th elections results and the next day my opponent, Craig Lowe, was sworn in as the new Mayor of Gainesville. Only a week later I filed to run for At-large seat #2 on the city commission. Like the Mayor’s race, this will be run city-wide and it will be a non-partisan contest. It will be held on a date to be named later in March, 2011.
Why am I doing this? Because the issues will continue to be the same: rapacious utility rates and mismanagement of the city government. I have also had every encouragement from friends and strangers alike, and this has intensified since I filed. Whereas most conservatives who have lost have gone back to their business and gotten politics behind them, I have decided to build on the support that I have, and to start early. I need you to do the same. I need your financial support, and the sooner the better. If we lay the ground work now, everything will go much smoother later.

Way to go Don. I was amazed that you were able to nearly defeat Lowe. It really shows that even in an area like the City of Gainesville, that the people are starting to realize that at some point we are going to have to elect people who know how to balance the budget from the expense side.
1We must never give up. We will get them next year. Three seats are up, and we need to take them ALL.
