Because of you, I can happily to announce that I was successful in the primary and will continue in the race to be your newest (though not your youngest) Wake County District Court Judge.

I am a Board-certified Family Law Specialist, a DRC-Certified Family Financial Mediator, a Spanish-speaker, and more importantly a member of your community. I look forward to serving you from the District Court bench, so remember to: VOTE NOVEMBER 4th.

Early Voting Begins Tomorrow

Beginning tomorrow, you can cast your ballot. There are early voting sites throughout Wake County. Some are even open over the weekend. If you want to help a campaign, mine or another of your choice, one simple way is to hang around after you cast your early ballot -- give others who are entering the polls some information or literature about your favorite candidates. Just make sure to maintain the proper distance from the voting booth: the distance will be marked at each site. If you are interested in helping, just contact the campaign for literature or talking points. For more information about the polling sites and the hours, please follow this link to our Wake County Board of Elections. Let your voice be heard. Vote and be counted. Vote early!

Register to Vote

As election day rushes toward us, I just want to give a couple of reminders:
Tomorrow, October 10, 2008 is the last day to register to vote in North Carolina. Registration forms that are received by the county board of elections OR are postmarked by the deadline are accepted. After registering, voters will be notified by the county board of elections of their precinct and polling places. IF you have not completed your registration in this conventional manner, you can still vote if you use the One-Stop Absentee voting process, just (1) go to a One-Stop Voting site in your home county, (2) fill out a voter registration application, and (3) provide proof of residency by showing the elections official an appropriate form of identification with your name and address. THIS WILL ONLY WORK FOR EARLY VOTING, NOT ON ELECTION DAY. Early voting starts on October 16th and ends on November 1st. We have 15 early voting sites in Wake County, making it very convenient and easy to vote early. For a list of the sites, you can go to the North Carolina State Board of Elections website.
As you vote, please remember that pulling a straight-party ticket will not place a vote for president or for the non-partisan races like the judicial races. Voting is a three-step process: President, partisan races, judicial races. Make your full vote count.
