Dear Friends & Neighbors,
I've been knocking doors in Bellevue and Green Hills this past week, discussing walking and biking connections to parks and schools and traffic calming and taxes. I met with Castleman neighbors about long-awaited speed cushions for their street and passed two major pieces of county-wide legislation for sidewalks and trees.
The work of a district council member is multi-faceted, and it behooves you to have someone representing you who has the experience of the past four years in addition to neighborhood-specific leadership and civic engagement in Nashville for the past twenty years.
The Election is upon us, and your participation is crucial. District elections have been won or lost by a small handful of votes. Your vote matters, especially in local elections! This is a pivotal moment for our city, financially and managerially. Please encourage your friends, family, and neighbors to go out and vote.
I am proud to endorse my thoughtful and trustworthy colleague Councilman John Cooper for mayor and encourage you to do your research and consider supporting him.
All Early Voting Locations are open NOW and close this Saturday, July 27 at 4:30 PM. Belle Meade City Hall, Bellevue Library, and Green Hills Library are the closest early voting sites to District 34. Please vote EARLY!
It has been my honor to serve you these past four years. If re-elected, I will continue to deliver and defend much-needed policies--additional tree bills are already in progress, and our new sidewalk legislation must be upheld. I will speak up when many others won't and provide principled, practical, & proven leadership.
With appreciation, Angie, 615-260-5530
P.S. Fundraising deadline is midnight tonight! We also need poll volunteers for Election Day. Links below. Thank you!
