Blogger and community activist Michael Mathias came within a whisker of winning a seat on the Milwaukee School Board in a tough, first-time race.
He fell a few votes short, and lost a lead when the absentee ballots were counted.
A bad break, but a solid candidate ran a fine campaign; let's hope he tries for elected office again.
He was opposed by teachers and other "liberal" groups. It's sad when your "friends" hurt you like that.
ReplyDeleteMichael ran a great campaign and he's got no reason to hang his head.
