So there you have it!

Posted on by David

So, the results came in and it was a pretty close race but in the end I was a few votes (67) short. The support and votes I did get means a lot to me, the 210 votes I received shows that a lot of people here in Range Lake put an X beside my name and believed in me.

That being said, I want to thank everyone for all your support. Big thank yous to everyone that supported me by going out to vote, everyone that helped out on my campaign, and to the other candidates running here in Range Lake (and all across the territory). It was a good race and I had a lot of fun meeting all of my new neighbours here in Range Lake. To those running, especially those doing it for the first time, it really takes a lot to put your name forward and get involved so thank you for all doing just that – voters need choices and there were many good choices.

My biggest disappointment is that more people didn’t come out to vote. Over the next four years I think all Yellowknifers need to figure out what’s wrong with our political system that makes people stay home. Hopefully for the next election we can double the number of voters coming out and voting.

Thank you again to everyone that helped out on the campaign and those that went out and voted. Campaigns like this take a lot of time and effort and it’s really appreciated.

Now that the campaign is over, let’s get these folks who are going to be in the 17th Assembly working. We need a lot of action and there’s only 1460 days left.

In the next litte while I’ll be revamping this website to decampaign it and make it something I can use going forward! Stay tuned for those changes and in the meantime please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Congratulations to all of those that were successful in the election this fall, you’ve been given a very important duty and I hope you all make the best of it – good luck.

 

Cheers!
