Due to a State Board of Elections decision there will NOT be a space on the primary ballot for write ins. This allows us to skip the primary and head straight into the General Election on November 3. State law requires that official ballots have “a means by which a write-in vote may be cast.” On November 3 you will see 6 names and a blank line in the running for City Council.
I ask that you write my name on that blank line.
Why is Robin Cape a write-in?
