The general election is only two weeks away! Make sure to check out the list of candidates for Advisory Neighborhood Commissioners. Don't see your candidate's name on the list or you would like to run for an ANC seat? It's not too late! Those interested in running for ANC positions can still run as "write-in" candidates. 

From the DC Board of Ethics and Elections:

Write-In Candidates for Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner

Write-in candidates for the Office of Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner must meet the same qualifications as candidates whose names appear on the ballot. Individuals who wish to become write-in candidates must certify their candidacy by filing a notarized Affirmation of Write-In Candidacy with the Board by no later than 4:45 p.m. on the seventh day following the general election (Tuesday, November 9). The Board encourages write-in candidates to file prior to Election Day.

An Affirmation of Write-In Candidacy may be obtained from the Voter Services Office or downloaded from the Board’s web site.

It is so inspiring to see all the new names on the list and several of the races have multiple candidates.  Such a wonderful example of residents interested in serving their community.  This is ALWAYS a good thing.
