Related: About this forumI was elected!
The phone rang this morning. It was the Greenfield City Clerk, informing me that I had 14 write-in votes, which was enough to get elected to the town Democratic Committee. I am excited to meet more local Democrats and to get on with the work to re-elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

It said choose no more than 35 names, and there were only a dozen listed, so I assume write instead in my town stood a pretty good chance.
Congrats again!

A funny story, when I was in high school, a teacher submitted my name into the student elections (for some category like treasurer or something like that), and I actually won! The thing was, I had won the 11th grade position, and I was in the 10th grade. Ha ha heh. My brush w/ politics.
