Campaign update: Starting to get good support across the broader spectrum of the Democratic field. The race is independent as per Village of Savoy designation but reach out to Democratic voter base including running online radio and terrestrial radio ads is going well. Facebook page is also starting to generate traction and support. Note: The winning candidate needs approx 700-850 votes to be in top-3 for the three open slots, so every vote counts.
Deck is stacked against us with the full Republican Party support behind the existing board members, the online forum for candidates sponsored by News Gazette the local newspaper and hosted by the League of Women voters and NAACP local chapter of Champaign-Urbana should give us good exposure.
Campaign page: ammarforsavoy.com to pledge support, contribute, share.
