To all of those who stood for democracy, thank you
To all those who voted, and to all those who ran for positions in government. To all those who said “I can and I will.” To all those who chose the ballot box, rather than cowardly acts of violence, to make a statement. To all those who worked tirelessly to make it possible for Americans to vote. To the men and especially to the women. To all of you, thank you. You have brought in the light of hope and determination. And, as the saying goes, keep it going! Elynne Chaplik-Aleskow, Lake View
