Thanks For The Show Of Support

With heart felt affection, I want to thank each of the 6,288 folks who voted for me. Thank you for supporting the parent's right and responsibility to educate their children.

My campaign cost me the $5 filing fee and a little gas money. I raised no money. I told less than a hundred people about my campaign. No advertising. No signs.

I answered all the questionaires and interview requests. I used my existing blog and website to promote my campaign. No additional cost involved.

6,288 votes or 10.19% of the votes on less than $30. I would call that a fiscally conservative campaign.

This was a true grassroots educational campaign. You don't have to win the election to influence public policy. Winning campaigns are not an end unto themselves....moving public policy in a libertarian or market anarchism direction is but a part of a larger struggle...

...a struggle to reclaim our birthright of self government.
