What The What!?! Miss Angela runs as a Non-partisan in a partisan Election!? What?

“This special election shall be nonpartisan, and no political party shall conduct for the purpose of nominating candidates for such Senate election.”

Ask any kid who's played Monopoly—if the banker isn't a fair one, the whole outcome of the game can change.

That can lead to two different conclusions: either the kids come up with a fair set of rules or everyone fights to be banker the next game.

When it comes to elections, voters have long struggled with a similar problem: Who should we vote for? Rather than investing your one precious vote in a partisan solution, for the most part, the parties have fought to be the banker—or in this case, the state Senator.

This special election cycle while qualifying, there was a choice: Republican, Democrat or Nonpartisan. I chose to run “Nonpartisan.”

That doesn't mean the candidate members have no party affiliations. It simply means that there will be NO party designation on the ballot and, is designed to #1- save money for the counties as far as balloting is concerned as well as the state and, #2- promote impartiality.

I believe there is merit of responsibility here.

Running as a “Nonpartisan” will not prevent me from representing you, regardless of

We typically do not ask our educators or our doctors which party they belong to before we allow them to practice their works and this special election of non party designation of “NONPARTISAN” will allow you to see me, the candidate, as I am and.

I hope you, as a voter, can appreciate that.
