Add another primary to the list. And it’s an important one. Because as of this afternoon, for the 5th(?) 6th(?) election in a row, I have once again been primaried for my precinct committeeman job.
I thought for a moment I was going to get off easy, but, apparently not. Probably need to dust off the old materials..
Now if I can only find a place for my 4×8.
Update..
I found the figures for the last few elections. It looks like I’ve got some work to do if I want to move some numbers.

I picked up a vote.. but my overall percentage is down.
After a high point in 2018, it looks like I’m slipping a bit to my 2016 vote totals. It must have been COVID keeping my voters home. (I wonder if they can do facebook geofencing down to a precinct level?)
