Hi Friends!
In order for my name to be on the ballot, I need to collect 400 nomination signatures (aka petition signatures). Click here to read about why I am running for Governing Board. After reading, I hope you choose to help collect signatures. Here is what you need to do:
- Print the petition (below) on to 8 1/2 × 11 paper (horizontally).
- Print the map (below).
- Buy a pack of 3 x 5 index cards (available at the Dollar Tree for a dollar + tax). This is the information follow-up card, where individuals will write the following information neatly (you can offer to write it):
- Name;
- Mailing address (you can offer to copy it from the petion later);
- Email address (for email reminders about when to vote, and communicating with me – let them know I will send them an email with my contact information, and a newsletter will come out around the fourth Friday of each month);
- Phone number (and if it can receive texts);
- + (a plus symbol and something they like about the schools);
- ◇ (actually a triangle which is the delta symbol which means change and something they would like to see changed at the schools).
- Get a clipboard (optional, and useful, and also available at the Dollar Tree for a dollar + tax).
- Buy a puzzle with a lot of pieces (optional, but fun! also available at the Dollar Tree for a dollar + tax).
- This is for giving to people you talk with. Give them a piece and tell them, “You are a piece of the puzzle of life!” 🙂 Let them know that they are invited to the Monterey Court Gallery (505 W Miracle Mile) on November 4, 2018 between 5p-8p to put their piece together with other pieces from the puzzle!
- Ask friends, neighbors, co-workers, and relatives (including the people at your grocery store, church, your child’s school, and the park) to sign the petition! Some notes about/for the individuals signing:
- They need to be registered voters and they can register online at
- They can be registered with any party (this is a non-partisan seat);
- They must live within the boundaries of the school district (I will inquire about families who might be open-enrolled);
- They can sign a maximum of two nominating petitions for candidates in the Amphi Race.
- Say thank you! 🙂
- Let them know they can contact me through :
- Facebook: @ChewForTucson;
- E-mail: chewfortucson@gmail.com;
- Phone/Text: 520.909.3888.
- Contact me (using one of the above methods), or simply come join me at a “First Fridays With Felicia” or a Calendar event, and we will meet-up!
