    Congratulations Jill. Andrea Merida won here in district 2, also, changing the face of the school board. We had quite a day being happy for you two, she had started a blog /facebook/ twitter/ etc with the support of several of her campaigners... all highschool kids dedicated to political renewal. That was so great to see up close with my own eyes, 14 and 16 and 18 year olds dedicated to get out the vote via internet for Andrea. It is so interesting the way people 'run' in our times. Proud of you Jillzie. Rest for a moment... then.... Go kick it.

    Jill!!!! Congratulations!!! And wow -- the first to go beyond talking the talk (or blogging the talk)? That's quite a milestone. Maybe some others of us will be inspired to follow suit?

    Very very impressive. Seriously. I've followed your campaign via your updates and notes (thank you), but went out of the loop for the last month or so. I'm really happy for you (and proud of you as well!)

    Thanks everyone. :)

    dr. e - would you mind emailing me the info on your friend re: school board? As I wrote, Alan Rosenblatt is trying to compile a list of bloggers who run for office. If you think your friend wouldn't mind be included on there, that would be great. And actually, that reminded me that I know one more person who won and is a blogger in Southern Ohio! Very cool.
