In the midst of the issue surrounding Andrews over the last few days, we quietly hit a milestone here at the online campaign HQ of hueyforguilfordschoolboard.org. Sometime overnight, we surpassed 10,000 visitors to this site.
10,000.
A monumental feat? You betcha. But we’re not letting our guard down, we’re just getting started.
We will file for a ballot spot in early February for the early May, 2008 primary, as scheduled. So far, no other names have surfaced to enter the race. Kearns continues to say that she is uncertain whether she will defend her seat.
We will schedule some upcoming campaign appearances and coffees in the weeks/months to come.
But 10,000 visitors equals 10,000 potential votes. And not to hound anyone for donations, but if those 10,000 people donated just a dollar, we’d be well on our way to being in a good position to win the primary. However, as I’ve said in the past, this campaign is not about money. It’s about the issues of reform, of change, of educating all of our children and putting politics aside and putting our children first.
I will continue to thank you all for your advanced support and well-wishes. It is much appreciated. This grass-roots movement is growing, you all are telling your friends and neighbors and the name is getting around. I thank you for that.
Stay tuned!

Sweet! Congratulations.
Congratulations – that’s a milestone worthy of praise.
You’ve got a solid start on your campaign and have demonstrated both a seriousness of purpose and real credibility.
School districts across the country would be far better off if their candidates approached their potential jobs with such transparency, honesty and accountability. Well done.
Thank you all, it is very much appreciated.
