Don't Forget to Vote!

On May 1, 2007, District of Columbia residents in Wards 4 and 7 will vote for a councilmember in a special election to fill the positions vacated b the now-Chairman of the Council Vincent Gray and Mayor Adrian Fenty.

This special election is very important to the future of our city. Especially, during a time when our city is divided and confused about how to best educate the, over, 50,000 students enrolled in DC Public Schools. The future of our city depends on the success of our youth and if we allow others to speak for us, there is a possibility that the future of the District will not be bright. This special election gives voters an opportunity for choose the candidate that they feel will best represent the interest of the citizens of the District of Columbia.

No longer shall we be silenced by allowing others to decide our candidates for us, we must choose them ourselves! We must speak and raise our voices loud enough to leave an echo resounding in the halls of the John A. Wilson Building.

Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace: Vote!
