  Early voting for county commissioners and other seats begins TOMORROW. (This primary election IS the true election here, as it will decide the only 5 candidates that are running and, therefore, the candidates elected to the BOCC for the next term).



  This election will definitely shape the look and quality of life in Durham in the immediate future.


  I hope that every Democrat and Independent will vote, and that they ensure they are confident in the people they are voting for, particularly if the platforms (or lack thereof) of those people involve decisions that will immediately and irreversibly change the face of Durham. 


  You have 5 votes, but you do not have to vote for 5 candidates. If you aren't confident in a candidate, your vote for that candidate could decrease the chances of winning for the candidates in which you are confident.


  Below are some links regarding early voting (times and locations) and the host of endorsements out there.


  Thanks for caring enough to exercise your hard-won right to vote.


  Sincerely,
  Melissa (Rooney)
