[AEN] Vote Saturday - City Council runoff election 7am - 7pm

[Brandi Clark]

ELECTION TOMORROW - Saturday June 14th 7am-7pm!
 
Please vote. It will only take a minute at your polling location. There is only one race - the runoff for Place 4 City Council between Laura Morrison and Cid Galindo.
 
Turnout at runoffs is so low that every vote truly counts.
Remember our ancestors fought for the right to vote, so that we could choose who would represent us. 
 
Laura won all the enviro endorsements. While Cid Galindo has some inovative ideas about new town centers that I think we should pursue here in Austin, I think that Laura is a better rounded candidate to represent us. But don't take my word for it, read their websites http://lauraforaustin.com/  http://www.cidgalindo.com/ and check out the list of individuals and groups endorsing Cid and Laura and either way PLEASE VOTE!
