Earl Blumenauer! Oh, My Gosh!

My school is one of the best schools ever. It got Earl Blumenauer to come to our school election. My school had an election because we work on a storyline, and the storyline this trimester was having our own election. Which was fun because we got to have our own political parties and we got to campaign for our candidates. It was really fun and really awesome. So, today was our final debate and voting day. And Representative Earl Blumenauer came to my school to speak to us about how great it was that we were so excited and involved in our campaign.

So, here's a picture of me with Congressman Blumenauer! (It's a little blurry.)



I gave him a copy of the letter that I sent about the tickets. He was really nice! He said that about a thousand people had asked for tickets, and that they were trying to figure out who would be chosen to go.

So anyway - just keeping you updated. Adios.
