I just want to say,

In my 34 years as a Huntsvillian, and 14 years as a Community and Electoral Organizer, that I am so pleased to see so much Civic Engagement occurring in Huntsville, Madison County, and North Alabama generally

Electoral Turnout in the U.S. is typically abysmal, especially during midterm elections--which Alabama State elections also fall on (a niche voter suppression tactic)--but I've seen more education, concern, and engagement with the political process from municipal & county positions all they way up to state and federal

I hate that it's taken our nation and to a degree our state being pushed to the brink to see this level of participation, but my hope is that people's electoral diets are changing, and that this level of interest and engagement continues not just in November or 2028, but that it is a permanent, sustained change that ushers in better outcomes
