| Though the emails were sent out last Wednesday, the results of Round 2 weren't posted online until this weekend. As a Round 2 selection, I am going to Netroots Nation in Minneapolis in June. Many of my supporters I have thanked in person or on the phone. I will be contacting many more with gratitude.
Given the events of the last several weeks, it is likely that some regret their support of my candidacy. If you do, don't fret. I didn't make it based on the popularity contest of it all, nor did I fantasize that I would. The auto-scholars all had over 900 supporters, which is far too many for a small market blogger to get. I am the equivalent of an 'affirmative action hire'. Democracy for America still holds to the ideals of it's founder, Gov./Dr. Howard Dean. They still believe in the 50 state project; and though I am not privy to the thought behind the selections, I can guarantee that being from Montana pretty much sealed the deal.
But there is more news. There is a Round 3. There are 8 more scholarships available, and voting will go as previous. These exceptions apply. It doesn't appear that the voting pool will be promoted on the DFA website, so it will all be up to self-promotion. The top 3 supported candidates get auto-bids. The remaining 5 will come from the selection committee. The voting will go until May 5th. If you want in, then apply and let me know. I will do the best I can to promote you, and I'm certain that there are those out there in the community who can at least garner more than my 109 supporters. |
