Congratulations to all those who will be sitting on the next Bellevue City Council. My race for Position No. 2 passed many people by, but I’d like to thank everyone who voted for me (yes – that’s both of you), and those who indulged me along the way.

Amongst my intentions was to show that these positions exist for all of us. Next time ’round, I hope that more people – better people than myself – are motivated to run for office and again we get a healthy selection of diverse candidates to choose from.
