Friends,
I know that you want to make a difference. You wouldn't be on this database if you didn't care about making this a better place ... and not just for yourself ... but for everyone.
You may have wondered how you can make this community and this state a better place. Consider this: Now might just be your time.
In three short weeks, (March 27, 2012) petitions for partisan candidates for the legislature and certain county offices are due for filing. Almost 18,000 Pennington County democrats will vote to elect fifteen state legislators, two county commissioners, the state's attorney and the county treasurer. Have you considered whether this is your time to be that candidate? There's no such thing as a perfect time to be a candidate. There are only opportunities that are lost because nothing was ventured. We need you, now more than ever.
My brief service in the state legislature was the most rewarding fulfilling professional experience of my life. Nothing compares to it. And if you want it badly enough, you can make it happen here. Others have. You can too. There are people here who will help you and support you and give of themselves for your success, and for our success.
And even if you don't get the most votes, your campaign can succeed by fighting for your issues, taking on the status quo, bringing the truth to light, inspiring change, demanding progress and helping it happen. Our system demands that good people take risk and engage in this noble public discourse to make this place better. I've lost campaigns too, and it hurts to lose. But even in losing we make a contribution that is so vital.
So will this be the year that you take that risk and give it your all?
If it might be your time, check the website for the South Dakota Secretary of State. It has information about these five legislative districts and the requirements for circulating a nominating petition. That website is http://sdsos.gov/elections. The Pennington County website also has information about county commission districts 2 and 4, the districts in which vacancies will be filled this November. That website is www.votepennco.com/election.
If you have other questions, call me or send me an e-mail. We are in this together and we're here to help.
Now is the time.
Sincerely,
Mike Wilson, Chairman
Pennington County Democratic Party
